Every year nearly half a million people in the UK start their own business and each one decides to start up on their own for a variety of reasons.  However, they all have one thing in common – they all started with just an idea.

Maybe you’ve already decided you want to start your own business but are unsure whether your idea is viable or if you really have what it takes. Maybe you want to explore what it is all about and need help in developing your idea.

This workshop will help you to:

• gain an overview of what is involved in starting and running a business
• understand the challenges and benefits of starting a business
• decide what you want your business to give you
• make an informed decision whether going into business is right for you
• take your idea to the next stage using helpful tools
• understand how Business Link can help
 
By the end of the session you will be able to:
• understand what is involved in starting up on your own
• gain support and ideas from fellow participants
• complete an individual workshop action plan detailing your next steps
• understand the Business Link package of support
