The Government’s flagship business support programme Help to Grow: Management is set to match thousands of small firms with volunteer mentors from leading businesses as it enters its second year.
Top names including Microsoft, banking giant Santander, FTSE 100 telecoms firm Vodafone, leading flexible space provider WeWork and home repairs and improvements firm HomeServe, have signed up their leaders alongside hundreds of small business owners to join a network of voluntary mentors who will help support small businesses develop a growth action plan.
The service will offer programme participants access to quality mentors based on region, sector, and skill requirements.
