The Unloc entrepreneurship programme is an opportunity for you to explore and build on any skills or needs you are wanting to work on for your future. For instance; developing your initial business idea; generating a memorable brand; keeping track of your finances; or support with developing your pitch to partners or investors.

You may have, also, applied for our Changemaker Grant and the outcome was the review panel suggested that you look to take part in this opportnity!

The Entrepreneurship Support Programme journey is set out below;

Background Form: 

This is your chance to fill out an online form that will help us to find out more about your business and the support you feel you really need (Enterprise Support Background Form)

1-to-1 call – Action Plan:

A member of the Unloc team will then meet with you to review your background form and collaboratively work with you on completing a skills self-assessment. From this we will create an action plan that incorporates the support you need along with the time commitment that you can give. This may also include refining your initial idea that you submitted for your Changemaker Grant Application. 

Signposting:

During the time an Unloc team member supports you they will also identify organisations and partners that can help provide long term support for you if you would like it. 

Review:

At the end of the mentoring process you will have the opportunity to review if the action plan that has been put in place has helped you improve your weaknesses and the objectives you set out to achieve. If you are accessing this programme from the outcome of your Changemaker Grant application, you will also be in a position to be able to resubmit your application!
