BARCLAYS Bank and Bolton Business Ventures have teamed-up in a joint initiative designed to help people launch a new business.

Start Right seminars are part of the Bank's national programme of events for people thinking of setting up on their own.

The sessions are organised by Barclays and members of the National Federation of Enterprise Agencies, such as BBV.

Their experience helps new businesses access all the information they need to turn dreams into reality.

The next Start Right seminar will be held at Europa House, Bury, on Tuesday, March 5.

To reserve a place contact BBV on 0161-447-8870.

The seminar will give invaluable information on the various aspects of starting and running a business.

Research shows that businesses are more likely to survive if they plan properly in advance and seek help through their local enterprise agency.
