Small businesses we have helped

An Interview with Blue Kazoo: Bringing history lessons to life, harnessing technology, and collaborating with creatives on The Big House programme

Enabling Dispace to take their innovative approach to creating co-working space to the next level!

“Having a small business is not just about what you make or sell or service you offer. You have to be a photographer, web designer and social media expert nowadays! I struggled with this and the support offered by the Big House is invaluable. I have gained knowledge, contacts and confidence through this scheme and it’s also free so if I was you, I would get in touch with them and see how they can help. Thank you to The Big House and all the partner agencies for the fantastic work you do!”
