Summer road shows come to Sale to help local business…

[dropcap type [circles]Trafford Council has organised special Business Support Summer Roadshows to help companies across the borough achieve their growth aspirations.

The Roadshows, organised by Trafford Council’s Strategic Growth Team, are part of the Council’s focus on business engagement to facilitate growth, investment and job creation.

To promote the Council’s offer to businesses, the Strategic Growth Team is embarking on a series of ‘pop up’ events at key business locations across the borough. Businesses will have the opportunity to ‘pop in’ to the events to meet with members of team and specialist advisors from a range of partner organisations who provide support to companies across Trafford.

On the 26^t July the team will be at Jackson House in Sale between 12 pm and 2 pm.

• Increase digitisation in your business, come and speak to an advisor to learn more about the support available.
• Looking at taking on an apprentice? Come along to find out more about the grants available from Trafford Council.
• Interested in promoting the use of sustainable forms of transport to employees? TfGM can help, come along to speak an advisor.
• Looking to grow or start a new business? Come along to learn about the support available from the Business Growth Hub.

Cllr James Wright, Trafford Council’s Executive Member for Housing and Regeneration,  said: “If you are looking to grow your business, increase digitisation, take on an apprentice or even start up a new business; come to the Roadshows to discuss your requirements and find out more about what support is available.
