## Description

Waltham Forest is looking to appoint a suitably qualified consultancy or sole trader to undertake a pilot of business support, alongside network consolidation and growth via three business focused events, to Fashion & Textile businesses in the borough\. The commission will include a tailored programme of support including individual business diagnostics, with subsequent follow up sessions to problem solve and action plan\. The intention is that all participating businesses \(and those that are interested but do not fully engage\) attend two networking and discussion/Q&A events with the intention of participating in the local network\. Should the pilot prove successful, there may be an opportunity to seek further funding to extend the programme, with greater integration into the wider Fashion District activities and the surrounding boroughs\.
