We’re hard at work on the next issue of Island Business magazine and it will be out at the start of next month.
If you haven’t caught up with this month’s issue, you can browse it on-line now. We look at the Island’s PFI contractor Island Roads, we hear from Shanklin Theatre and we feature the Island’s construction industry with G J Banks Isle Of Wight and ERMC.

The one day workshop is delivered by an experienced business mentor, in a friendly manner, allowing you to get as many questions answered as possible. You will be spending a day with other like-minded people, embarking on the same journey, with the opportunity to network and share knowledge.
When starting in business you have to wear many hats, some fit well and others need adjustment. Come along and find out which areas you might need help with.
