Council offers business support following pandemic New support from Plymouth City Council is set to help businesses get back on their feet and give entrepreneurs the support they need to get going. Four brand-new projects will offer businesses a lifeline and support Plymouth’s economic recovery following the coronavirus pandemic. The aim is to create 50 new jobs, 27 new social enterprises and support more than 140 individual businesses. This will involve helping individuals into self-employment or guiding them as they set up new businesses, as well as supporting existing businesses looking to ‘relaunch’ after the interruption caused by coronavirus. Each of the four business support programmes has its own specific focus: Business Start-up Support; Inspirational Entrepreneurship Programme; Digital Pivot Programme; Social Enterprise Support. Council leader Nick Kelly said: ‘We’re really proud to
be offering this comprehensive business support, which will play a crucial role in the city’s economic recovery post-Covid. This hands-on, valuable support will not only help those struggling with the effects of the pandemic but also get new businesses off the ground. We pledged to support the vibrant small business startup sector in Plymouth and these programmes will do just that.’ The Business Start-up Support and Inspirational Entrepreneurship Programme will be provided by YTKO. The Digital Pivot Programme is being run by Cosmic, a social enterprise offering digital skills training and services, while the Social Enterprise Support will be led by the School for Social Entrepreneurs. n Find Out More: For more information about business support programmes vist investplymouth.co.uk or heartofswgrowthhub.co.uk
