Business support

The Council maintains a well-established advice service in response to enquiries about:

• Availability of sites and premises
• Sources of specialist help
• Types of financial assistance available
• Training provision
• Planning legislation

In addition to providing its own services, the Council's role is to 'signpost' the appropriate agencies to avoid duplication of services.In particular the Council works closely with Business Link Shropshire and Shropshire Investment Bureau.
