A Lancashire-based social enterprise that aims to inspire female entrepreneurs has received free support and £5,000 in funding to help it develop an innovative new website.

Role aims to give female managers the confidence needed to climb the career ladder by offering mentoring services, both face to face and online.

Role business owner Wendy Bowers received free support to develop the online system through a Boost Business Lancashire programme, delivered by Regenerate Pennine Lancashire.

Wendy said: “The support and finance that I’ve received to develop the online system has really helped move the project forward. We are due to launch the system soon, which is an essential part of our business plan. It will help us in our aim to provide a role model for every woman in the UK that wants one, from their teenage years to retirement.

The free Boost programme, which is called Growth Sectors Support, helps businesses achieve their potential to grow and create jobs within the creative and digital, environmental, advanced manufacturing, aerospace and finance sectors.
