  HI Mike

  Can we put a link on the Econ Dev page on the website to promote This is available to all Hampshire businesses and residents. It would be the icing on the cake if we could have it in one of our weekly Borough News that goes out. Let me know if you need some words to go before the link.

   

  This link will be updated as new projects come on as they have just been awarded an extra £7 million to deliver further projects. The new projects will be linking with larger businesses, looking for opportunities for the long term unemployed, people with disabilities, ex-forces, and victims of violence.
