Welcome to the business support section.  If you're in business, or considering starting up a business of your own, this section has been designed to help you.

Using the links to the left, you can access information on a wide range of topics; from finding grants and finance, looking for business premises to your tax responsibilities and arranging conferences.  There are also useful links to business support organisations, such as the Business Link for East Lancashire, the Hyndburn Enterprise Trust, the East Lancashire Chamber of Commerce and the Asian Business Federation .

If there's something you'd like to see added to this section, please email us and let us have your thoughts.
