What we do
"Working with TEDCO gave me the confidence and courage to go forward and take the next steps towards opening my own business. Without the help of TEDCO I would probably still be sitting at home talking about starting a business rather than actually running one". Georgina Scott, The Wool Shop.
"I can judge the demands of work along side taking care of my family and other activities. Being self employed gives me the flexability with my schedule that I couldn't have any other way." Ben Bridgestock - Betterdays Industries.
Just like you, these people had a great idea or a hobby or skill that led them to become self employed. TEDCO help you to find ideas and give you free support to turn your hobbies or skills into businesses. Our team can assist you to explore your abilities and look at the reality of starting a business.
We are there to help you, regardless of age, background or circumstances, and you don't even need to have a business idea!
