Accessing finance
We haven’t yet met a nurse entrepreneur who didn’t need more funding and at the same time most of the funding sources are so hard to access. As well as helping you find the right kind of funding for you, we also try and work with funding organisations to make them more receptive to what you need. Whether you need to get funding from your manager, from your organisations’ board, from an commissioner or from a lender, there should be something here for you.
Some of our most recent additions are:
- How the EPOCH business model will increase your turnover or your money back
- How to make presentatins for funding
- The myth of audited accounts (or how to save money on your accountancy fees)
- Why is most free business support so terrible?

- The problems with being grant-funded
