Hundreds of people attended an event aimed at supporting small businesses and entrepreneurs in the borough.

The Harrow Means Business meeting, organised by Harrow Borough Council and Federation of Small Business and Harrow in Business, took place last week.

More than 200 people attended the day to get free advice on running a business in Harrow and find out about the latest opportunities in the borough.

Council cabinet member for business Keith Ferry said: "We have a strong and thriving business community here in Harrow who we are determined to support.

“I am pleased that the event was a success. Feedback from local businesses was positive and I am glad everyone was able to network and make new business connections.

“Supporting local businesses is a top priority for the council and I look forward to meeting more local business in upcoming business events.”
