Yorkshire Coast Enterprise Ltd

Our area focuses mainly on the Yorkshire Coast but specific projects are delivered on a national basis.

Anyone considering starting a business can contact the Agency, arrange to meet an adviser and discuss the many things that they should be considering before undertaking the sometimes hazardous step of self-employment. This may cover such topics as raising finance, grants, taxation, National Insurance Contributions, Business Plans, cash flow, book-keeping, VAT, renting property etc., etc.

There are many other Agencies who can help people in business. We liaise with most of them. Well known names are: Department of Trade and Industry, Jobcentre Plus, North Yorkshire County Council, Scarborough Borough Council, Rural Development Commission, Prince's Youth Business Trust, Livewire, The Careers Service, other Local Enterprise Agencies, etc., etc. We can advise you on any other organisation who may be able to help you.
