An £8.25million investment and support programme has been launched to support Greater Manchester’s entrepreneurs to start or grow businesses that tackle inequalities in communities.

The new Proper Good programme is offering grant funding, social investment and free-to-access, tailored training and business support to entrepreneurs in four areas of Greater Manchester – Bolton, Oldham, Stockport and Wigan. The support can be at every stage from start-up to scale-up - with a focus on those creating a positive social or environmental impact in their area.
