Council in collaboration with Enterprise North West, are hosting an event
exploring best practice examples in inclusive entrepreneurship, with a
particular focus on disability/long term health conditions in to order to help
inform delivery enterprise supports.
For many disabled people or
those with long term health conditions wishing to enter the workforce on their
own terms, self-employment and entrepreneurship can be a very worthwhile and
empowering option to achieve more independence. It provides the flexibility
and freedom to choose your own hours and working conditions however, it can be
an extremely daunting experience navigating the support on where to start.
Through this event, attendees
will hear from keynote speakers who will provide inspirational,
lived-experience stories about their successful pathways to entrepreneurship
alongside specialist support organisations who will help directly with the
startup process and identify the appropriate sources of expertise, funding and
any additional support.

barriers into employment
