I was invited to speak to a small group of budding Watford entrepreneurs about how best to ensure their business can thrive.
We spoke about the challenge of self-employment often being quite lonely, particularly at the start without colleagues to share ideas with.
There are over four million self-employed people in the UK right now, making a huge contribution not just to our economy but also creating employment opportunities for others.
If you would like to attend a similar session, please let me know.
