“I hope that many more aspiring entrepreneurs in Rye and Hastings enquire at the job centre about support available to them through the New Enterprise Allowance.”
The allowance – which supports people on out of work benefits to start their own business – has helped more than 46,000 people across the country to set up successful businesses since it was introduced in April 2011. The support available to people starts with help from a business mentor to develop their business idea.
