Free business start-up programme is launched in Eastbourne

A business start-up programme that helps local people make their new enterprise a success has come to Eastbourne.

The Local Enterprise & Apprenticeship Platform (LEAP) programme is under The Business Support in Eastbourne project that has received £77,000 from the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

With the next programme starting on May 22 and May 23, entrepreneurs in Eastbourne have just a few days left to register. By doing this, they will access a free programme of tailored support packed with workshops, one-to-one mentoring and networking to help them create a robust business plan and a local support network.

There is also the opportunity to win £2,500 towards start-up costs.
