What's involved
What you get.
Many arrive having run businesses at home, and find the UK system opaque rather than the work difficult. This programme translates it — and builds the local network that makes starting possible.
Practical business basics
How UK registration, tax and banking actually work, taught without jargon and with interpretation where needed.
Confidence and language
Sessions built around presenting, negotiating and selling in a second language.
Local connections
Introductions to Tamworth businesses, mentors and community organisations who can open doors.
Next steps
How to get started.
Referrals come through local support organisations, or get in touch with the Chamber directly. Sessions run in Tamworth.
