Businesses and would-be entrepreneurs across the Great Yarmouth area can access free business support and advice thanks to the launch of a town centre enterprise hub.

Great Yarmouth Borough Council has teamed up with the Town Centre Partnership to launch The Hub in the Market Gates Shopping Centre.

The Hub is a one stop shop for start-up, new and more established businesses and offers business advice, support, and training.

Great Yarmouth town centre manager Jonathan Newman said: "I am delighted that The Hub is now open for business and delivering advice to Great Yarmouth businesses.”

Norfolk Chambers of Commerce will have a regular weekly presence at the Hub for both one-to-one business conversations and some networking events.

Nwes, a business support agency, will also have advisors there.

Businesses can also book the space for their own business events. The opening times are 10am to 4pm on, Monday to Friday.
