East Surrey Business Survey

East Surrey Business Survey with Epsom & Ewell Borough Council
Businesses large and small, entrepreneurs, sole traders, start-ups, and scale-ups across East Surrey are being asked to identify what needs to be done to enable the region to reach its full economic potential and to further support their businesses to not only survive but thrive in the months ahead.

The four Councils that form East Surrey (Epsom & Ewell, Mole Valley, Reigate & Banstead and Tandridge) have come together to establish the Shared East Surrey Economic Development Initiative to assess the current business environment and understand the key challenges faced by the region.

Some of the key themes addressed in the survey are workforce skills and training, access to finance, current opportunities and challenges, and business support needs.

By completing this survey, businesses can help the East Surrey local councils get a better understanding of growth challenges, skills and employment needs, and business support requirements. It is open to any business based in the East Surrey region and will take just 10 minutes to complete.

Visit www.eastsurreybusinesssurvey.co.uk to find out more and complete the survey.
