Growing Business In Burnley

On Friday, 18th October, Burnley, Pendle and Rossendale Council for Voluntary Service (BPRCVS) held a spotlight lunchtime event at The CVS Centre for our UK Shared Prosperity People and Skills Steps to Employment project where we showcased a range of the newly created Burnley-based micro businesses that have been supported through passive income sessions.
Project participants received support from BPRCVS to generate their own business ideas, sharing thoughts and inspiration to get the ideas off the ground and into a functioning micro business generating a small income.
Petals and Polishes, Frame Fusion Studios, Alternative Knitwear by Paula, and Chrissy’s Crystals were the four businesses represented on the day. Since the project started in April this year, BPRCVS has helped 14 people to set up their own micro business.
