Running Your Own Business is Rewarding - Posted: 29 Feb, 2012
This is the message Abid shared with ‘A’ level students when he and members of the local Federation of Small Businesses branch visited Tewkesbury School recently.
Abid is the vice-chair of the FSB and he frequently volunteers his time to inspire the next generation of budding entrepreneurs into business. The FSB team was invited by the Head of the Sixth Form to discuss the advantages of running a business with the students who were also encouraged to identify the potential pitfalls of self-employment.
“It was a most successful morning” commented Abid “I believe it’s important to show young people that there is an alternative route for them after completing their education and training and with the right support running your own business can be a rewarding option”.
