Backing businesses with Cheshire East

 

Boosting business is still very much on the agenda for Cheshire East Council as its Business Hub comes to Crewe later this month.

From 10am until noon on February 16, the Council and its partners will be at Scope House, Weston Road, to offer traders the chance to learn how to maximise business opportunities during the economic recovery.

Cheshire East’s Economic Recovery Task Group is working hard to support its local business community and this event will take a closer look at how people can develop their business skills in a tough economic environment.

Councillor Jamie Macrae, Cabinet member with responsibility for prosperity, said: “I would urge any local business owner to attend this event – we are living in difficult financial times and any advice on how to improve your business could prove crucial.

“The Economic Recovery Task Group is aiming to grow and develop a sustainable Cheshire East. We will make every effort to offer help to local businesses during the current economic climate. These Business Hubs are one of many ways to get the support your business needs.”

It follows hot on the heels of a number of procurement training workshops which received a wealth of positive feedback from visitors.

The procurement service, which is designed to help businesses gain a better understanding of how to tender for work with Cheshire East Council and other public sector organisations, will also be present at the event.
