Businesses we’ve supported so far
We’ve already worked with over 40 businesses in Flintshire and here’s what just some of them have had to say:
- An absolutely amazing experience… one that I think that every business, both big and small, would benefit from in Flintshire. It’s given me that “fire in my belly” feeling again! Thank you!” — Tower Crafts, Holywell.
- “This programme has helped us to become more profitable, increase footfall and better advertise ourselves. We are so grateful for Lorna’s (business mentor) help every week!” — Holywell Museum, Holywell.
- “Joanne (my business mentor) has reawakened my passion for my business. I had completely lost motivation but this has given me the kick and support I need to get my business back on track again.” — Peridot Academy, Shotton.
- “This support has given me the opportunity to properly work on my business, instead of just in it. It’s helped me to put the foundations in place, focus on marketing and increase footfall. Thank you so much!” — Lovelies Delights, Mold.
