Case Study

Council is delighted to work alongside Andrea in setting up her own community micro-enterprise providing care and support for people in her local area.

Andrea is an experienced carer and was in the process of setting up her own business. The Community Catalysts programme was able to work with Andrea through the process of ensuring that she had everything required to run her small care and support enterprise. Claire had already obtained a DBS and registered with HMRC. With the Community Catalysts programme, she was able to work at her own pace and get advice and guidance about insurance, regulations around sole traders offering care, safeguarding, risk assessment and other essentials. Through the programme she has also been able to connect, informally to other self-employed people for mutual support and networking.

Andrea now has her own business up and running and she has taken on her very first customers. She is looking forward to delivering care and support her way and running her quality small business with pride.
