We partnered with Enterprise Nation to launch business.connected, helping 800,000 small and medium-sized businesses take their digital skills to the next level over the next three years.
Business owners can take part in e-learning modules, digital workshops delivered by business.connected advisers and Lunch and Learn webinars, and have a free consultation with a Vodafone V-Hub adviser.
The business.connected programme covers a range of core digital topics, from SEO and e-commerce to cyber-security and connectivity.
We're catching up with some of the business owners who have been taking part in the initiative to find out about how it's benefited them so far.
Here, we talk to Angela Loveridge, whose business Better Together offers child online safety workshops and customised family support designed for parents, guardians, caregivers, teachers and non-teaching professionals who work with children.
I would say choose something you're passionate about. Because it's not an easy being an entrepreneur. It's not a simple road! But your passion will pull you through the tough times.
As a founder, you're often working alone. But if you reach out to people, you're very rarely alone. If you need help, ask for it.
For more support discover our free business support helpline and ​speak to one of our Business Advisers by phone, contact form or web chat.
