About this Event

Business Start Up



Business Start Up is The Growing Club's 7-month start-up course, for women ready to start a small business.


The purpose of our Business Start Up course is to:

*Take women through a systematic programme of starting a solid, sustainable business.

*Equip participants with the skills to run a sustainable small business

*Ensure systems are in place to make things run as smoothly as possible from day one

*Provide peer support to break the isolation, build confidence and provide accountability


Most small businesses fail in the first two years because the business owner does not have the business skills to support their good idea.

Our start-up course addresses that problem to ensure participants have the skills and the support they need to launch and grow a sustainable business.

On completion of the course you will be matched with a mentor, another woman in business, for support and accountability, for a further 12-months.




How much does this cost?

The course fee is on a sliding scale, based on your financial circumstances. We will have a chat with you about this ahead of the course to agree a fee.

We want to make sure you can attend the course without money being a worry, so please do come and have a chat with us if you have any queries or concerns. We’ll always do our best to support you to attend.


**There are just 10 places so you will need to confirm your commitment to attend at least 85% of sessions, to be given a place


How to apply...

Please book onto this session and the trainers will be on hand to speak to you. We will answer any questions, give you some information and chat to you about your business idea. Places on the course will be allocated after attendance of one of these info sessions.


Sessions will run on a Thursday morning 10am to 1pm, in Lancaster.
