Local Enterprise Offices may run one to one business advice clinics to help those who are thinking about starting a business or who have an existing business and need advice to grow their business.
Local authorities may provide information and advice to new or existing businesses on aspects of running a business such as starting up or expanding, commercial rates, planning and suitable locations and properties.
Local authorities work with their service users to understand their needs, redesign services and develop ways to improve access to and deliver better local authority services.
