What a great initiative something to be proud of that really does help young businesses, meaningful action that simply WORKS!!

Twelve years ago to-day an agreement was signed with @kcomhome by which they invested £60,000 into JCYEB

We are now only five grants away from issuing 1000 grants to enterprising young people in the 20 years since JCYEB was founded #YoungEntrepreneurs #BeYourOwnBoss

I'm calling on Sadiq Khan to ditch the ULEZ camera designed to trap cancer patients, staff & visitors to the Royal Marsden.
I want the ULEZ extension scrapped entirely, but a degree of common sense & compassion being applied by the Mayor in this instance would be very welcome.

We are delighted that Ian Cass of The Forum (The FPB) is a speaker to celebrate seven years of our HLC funded programme to support enterprising young people in Hull on 18th September in Hull Guildhall - If you wish for an invitation email [email protected]

I would have thought such a fundamental change to the sector would invite one or two questions from the PCA to those she is regulating, but no!! Apparently not!!, The sector continues to shrink dramatically & new working models replace traditional tenancies at an alarming rate!

⁦The Forum (The FPB)⁩ With two of my favourite cousins at our family reunion with all the New Zealand clan in Scotland this weekend. “Ohana means family, Family means no one gets left behind or forgotten!”

⁦The Forum (The FPB)⁩ swimming in the North Sea at Cullen in Scotland and yes it was freezing 🥶

Ian Cass Brilliant work Ian! I bet you feel amazing.

This is what Sunday mornings look like these days, 4 stone lighter, reversed type two diabetes & blood pressure normal! So if you are one of those diagnosed with type 2 like my dad who died early from diabetes related issues don’t just accept it like he did, you can do something!

9.15 on a Sunday morning and that looks delicious consider me hooked😀

This is going to be a great event in a great location and I would encourage micro businesses in the sector to come along, share their experiences, learn some new skills and pick up new ideas from the great speakers and other attendees!!😀

The situation in many ways is worse than it was when the code was introduced in 2016 I’m afraid!!

⁦The Forum (The FPB)⁩ at the House of Lords for the Institute of accountants and bookkeepers awards. As an SME owner myself in the past & talking to our members many of us rely on our accountants & bookkeepers to keep us on the straight & narrow, so it’s good to be celebrating them!

Why are businesses that are supposed to be 'outside' of the code (i.e., not tied tenants) even being consulted with, this all seems very strange? Ian Cass James Hurley
