Support For Starting A Business

The Princes Trust work with 18 to 30-year-olds to turn big ideas into a business reality through their Enterprise programme. From training and mentoring support to funding and resources, they will be  with you every step of the way.

Eligibility
If you’re 18 to 30, living in the UK and unemployed, or working fewer than 16 hours a week, and have a business idea or some ideas to explore, the Enterprise Programme could be for you.

Getting Started
Kicking off with a free information session in your local area, The Princes Trust will tell you how they can support you and, if you're still keen, they will also invite you onto a four-day interactive workshop.

You'll get to meet other like-minded people and have the chance to tap into a business expert, covering everything from business planning and marketing to sales, budgeting and tax.

After this, it's time to start building your business. The Princes Trust will then support you to plan and test your ideas and give you the opportunity to apply for funding. That way, you'll be ready to meet their Business Launch Group at the end of the process.

Once you've launched your business, The Princes Trust will provide you with an experienced business mentor who will be on hand to share advice every step of the way - for up to two years. 

Apply
From beauticians and barbers to digital agencies and dog groomers, The Princes Trust think they have seen it all. Or have they?
