IMPACT Design of Taylor Street, Horwich -- in conjunction with The Knack design team -- has beaten stiff competition to win the contract to produce corporate identity work for Bolton Community College.

The new body comes into existence this year with the merger of Bolton College and Bolton Community Education Service.

Impact Design's Ged Walsh, who was formerly Business Development Manager at the BEN, is delighted with the win and the support he and colleague Leigh Shaw have received from the Bolton Enterprise Fastrack scheme.

"Ross Bullock, our adviser, has helped us with our business planning, marketing and lots of moral support which has allowed us to be up and running quicker than we thought possible," Mr Walsh said.

"Anyone thinking of starting a business in the Bolton area would be well advised to talk to the Enterprise team at Washington Street," he added.

Further details of the Headstart Scheme and Fastrack are available from Bolton Enterprise Services on 01204 336155.
