Our next meeting is a Lunchtime event at the Boddington and Dragon in Wilmslow - 12 noon on 25th May. We are pleased to welcome back Maria Heath from Job Centre Plus, who first spoke at YBC in Poynton in October last year.

Maria will explain how small business can get help and funding when employing new staff. There are several schemes available which Maria will go through on the night to help small business to grow with minimum risk;-

• 'Try Before Your Buy' - work trials to confirm a candidates suitability
• 'The Golden Hello' - money to the employer !
• 'New Deal' subsidies
• 'Pre-Employment Training' - preparing the workforce for YOUR business
