I'm thinking about starting up my own wee company. Very early days but just looking into more fully and would be grateful for some advice.

I have a few 'deigns' which will need to be made up. Naturally I can make them myself but long term I will need a few people which sewing machine to make it work.

How does one go about 'finding' such a thing??

I would have thought that would count as subcontracting, so I would do something like google 'subcontractors sewing'.

I can recommend Business Link - mostly online these days unfortunately but useful support for dh's business startup in the past. The single best thing he did was go to a free workshop from the Inland Revenue about what he could claim against tax.

Sewing contractors / sub contractors has hit a bit of a dead end...will keep at it later with a glass of Wine thanks Joan for the suggestion!
