The Shropshire Expo: Business support, skills & championing your community - Member Event 10th May 2024

*For all businesses, organisations and individuals in the Shropshire Council area only*

Last year the UK Shared Prosperity Team at Shropshire Council successfully secured nearly £15m to fund vital projects in Shropshire. These projects are now actively supporting businesses, communities and individuals across the county.

There are a vast variety of programmes available, including:

• assistance with starting a business

• business growth and expansion

• innovation

• prototyping

• manufacturing

• energy saving

• tourism development

• leadership and management coaching

• gaining employment

• improving digital and numeracy skills.

• How you can support your local community

• Skills for your workforce

• Skills for those looking for employment

Listen to presentations and visit the exhibition where representatives will be available for one-on-one discussions to help you learn more about these projects, how they can benefit you and how best to access what they have to offer.

Who should attend?

• Businesses looking for support and opportunities to connect with Shropshire communities.

• Social Enterprises

• Individuals and businesses looking to upskill

• Community Organisations wanting to engage with businesses

• Looking for support into employment

AND most importantly, all the support provided is funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and therefore FREE to access. The event is also FREE to attend.

Refreshments and lunch available.
