Kent Fresh Start Academies Expand EastwardsFollowing a successful first year the Fresh Start Academies are now looking for more young people and new entrants to join this exciting scheme in East Kent.The Fresh Start Academies aim to provide new entrants and those working in the sector opportunities, training and networking to assist them in developing the next generation of rural and agricultural businesses. More than 25 members benefited from the first Academy in Kent and many of those are now managing their own rural or agricultural business. This project provides career opportunities, business opportunities, professional advice and networking for anyone looking to start or develop their own business. Meetings include networking with bank managers, advice on writing a business plan, visits to successful businesses and guidance on managing staff. As well as the Academy based at Hadlow College, the project has recently started recruiting members to join an East Kent group to be based in Canterbury. If you would like to join either of these groups please contact region coordinator Douglas Jackson on 01444 232 822 or email douglas@laurencegould.com. |
