In collaboration with business leaders and advisers across the region, Forbes Solicitors is launching its latest initiative, the Sounding Board.

This will provide the opportunity for businesses to access a complimentary one-hour virtual consultation to focus on the critical problem-solving and insight from experienced counsel that will help to support them bounce back from a challenging year of trading.

Oliver Burton, CEO at Forbes Solicitors said: "We mooted the idea of launching the Sounding Board concept last month and have been overwhelmed by the offers of support from accountants, business advisers, NEDs, leaders and consultants from across the North West.

"Our own clients and those we've interviewed through our Reinvention & Resilience Top 50, have demonstrated incredible agility and innovation this year, but every single business has a unique set of challenges. Not all SMEs benefit from non-execs or adviser support and may wish to seek insight from independent but experienced professionals who can add value.

"There is an abundance of optimism within the region and a recognition that collaboration will be key to our combined future prosperity. Our commitment to the future of the region is to give the time and expertise that will help as many businesses as possible to get back to full strength."

Businesses can contact Forbes at [email protected] to share an overview of their challenges and arrange an appointment with the Sounding Board and a bespoke team of advisers will be arranged to attend the call.
