ANYONE thinking of starting their own business or going self-employed can pick up some useful tips at a free advice day being held at the Boathouse in Wisbech on Tuesday, May 31 (9.30am-1.30pm).

Organised by NWES with the support of Fenland District Council and Barclays Bank, it is the first in a series of four similar days, with others to follow on July 25, September 19 and November 16.

Advice will be available on all aspects of starting up on your own, including how to avoid common pitfalls, how to find customers and the free, impartial support that NWES can offer.
