Hi All, Callum I think you’re exactly right. Thought i’d bump this discussion as it’s important one! Shell LiveAWARD awards It would be great if anyone else could add on ones they know! You can also get StartUp loans from StartUp Britain – they are low interest enterprise loans It’s a fantastic resource, up to £2,500 available if you have a viable business plan. |
