Businesses taking part are already praising the programme. Andrew Heppleston, operations manager at Shield Security (UK) Ltd in Huddersfield, said: “So far, the course has included a great blend of information and activities, and it’s been great to listen to a wide range of knowledgeable speakers.
“I’ve already learned so much that I’d like to implement within the business, which will involve getting together with the management team and relaying all my learnings to them.”
Stella Bowdell, Help to Grow programme lead, said: “It’s been a delight to welcome so many new organisations onto our fourth programme and to see them engaging with the course content and each other.
