How to Start a Business From Scratch

There has never been a more empowering time to start a business from scratch, especially if you are long-term unemployed, disabled, or seeking independence from a system that doesn’t always serve you. With government policy actively encouraging people to return to work, including those who face barriers due to disability or health, starting your own business can be a powerful, self-directed solution. You gain not only control over your income and routine but also protection from benefit sanctions, while still receiving financial support as you build your dream from the ground up.
