Dunno whether this is an idea worth exploring .....

Some builders seem to be actively involved in house renovation - tarting up dilapidated properties (possibly with lots of unlovely mould) and then selling on the improved property. Would there be any value in researching which builders do such work (eg through a housebuilders' trade association) and then trying a direct pitch to them?

Hi Raluca

Glad you've joined us!

If you haven't already done one of the (free) business courses run for budding entrepreneurs by organisations such as Business Link, Prince's Trust (they've an age cut off), local development initiatives normally linked to the local authority and so on, please consider doing so. Apart from picking up useful tips, these courses often offer free mentoring services, a networking club, some free publicity, contacts with professional bodies (eg accountants) that might be helpful, cheap loans and (sometimes) grants.

Best wishes, Linda

Maybe local .... I've been off and on Google throughout the day and had no probs.

What I know about Environmental Health and food preparation / storage issues is anecdotal only (I've friends who explored the options of making food items at home for resale and also friends / work colleagues who worked in Environmental Health). However, I'd say it could save a lot of heartache, expense and legal troubles if you tell Environmental Health about your plans in advance and ask for their advice.

The friends gave up on the idea of food preparation when they realised they'd have to pay for very expensive and not particularly attractive modifications of their kitchen (modern and well-kept).

Hi Alison

If MLF members can't help, might be worth your while to talk to one of the surviving Business Links / Chambers of Commerce.

Best wishes, Linda

I'd have thought there might be Environmental Health problems too .... Would advise checking if you haven't already done so because the modifications to storage and packaging areas may be so expensive they'd wipe out any profit.

THANKS yet again. It's nice to know what's going on.

Will check all my pages now for missing <meta names.

Best wishes, Linda
