The Get Trading Programme helps South Tyneside residents to progress their business ideas to the point of actually starting to trade. Exciting times, if not a little daunting? Book your place to be part of the Get Trading Programme.

You'll get support from Business Advisors who've been round the track a few times, and have answered every conceivable question on starting a business. Add to that a team of new peers and this fully-funded programme is ready to help you firm up your idea and get going.
