"I am impressed with Tewkesbury BC in the way they positively support the SMEs in the locality. The recent Small Business Grant proved to be an excellent initiative as we developed a marketing tool (Slate Coasters with our logo) which has proven to be highly successful. We would not have undertaken this without the grant. The seminars provide SMEs with an important cohesion as a business community"
