A LOCAL Business Forum is part of an £11.2 million regeneration scheme for Farnworth and Little Hulton.
The money will be invested over five years - together with other private and public money - by the Little Hulton and Farnworth Partnership.
The Partnership comprises Bolton and Salford Councils, Manchester Training and Enterprise Council, Bolton and Bury Chamber, the police and local community representatives.
Although there will be a programme of investment in homes, education, community safety and jobs, a large part of the scheme will focus on business support and expansion, improved business security and environmental improvements on industrial estates.
A spokesman said this could include financial assistance advice and other support.
All local businesses are invited to become members of the Forum, which meets in the New Year.
Anybody interested can contact the Business Outreach Officer for the area - Eric Kirk on 01204 372001.
