Following the success of our first joint community event with social enterprise Cool Ventures, supporting people who want to set up their own care and help at home service, we are thrilled to be running another event towards on Wednesday 12th March 2025 from 09:30 – 12:30 at The Studio (10 Palace Yard Mews, Bath, BA1 2NH).
Both Cool Ventures and Community Catalysts have been commissioned by BANES Council to offer business advice and support for residents wanting to run their own business or enterprises. This event focused on care and help at home, offering a range of information on topics as diverse as responsibilities when offering personal care, understanding our Doing it Right standards, developing your business idea, registering with HMRC, and marketing your enterprise.
