@gregory-mullins No problem. Regarding Angel investors/Go fund me I would point you in the direction of https://www.weareumi.co.uk/what-we-do/get-funding and https://www.umisatnav.co.uk/sign-up for start up support. As well as the ignition lite support provided via Signal!
Umi are a free 6 month service to help with the aforementioned so may be worth exploring!

@gregory-mullins If you are a start up you can apply for the start up loans through the British Business Bank , they are the most competitive for debt under £25 k. In terms of crowdfunding I dont have any personal experience, I’ll have think before we meet

Thanks for sharing this, Kurt.
Access to funding can make a real difference for community-focused organisations and rural businesses, so it’s great to see these opportunities being highlighted.
Another great example of the value that Hampshire Growth Hub brings through not only funding awareness but also the free support, guidance, and expertise available to help businesses navigate their growth journey. Definitely worth a look for any eligible members.

@gregory-mullins There is a course here that we provide called ‘How to Crowdfund Anything’ I can’t see if its one of the ones that you get with free memebrship, you may have to upgrade, but you can check by clicking ‘my courses’ above. You can upgrade and not pay anything for four weeks, this will give you full access to the site
