“The CDA have been integral to the research, development and set up of The Growth Pool CIC," said Sarah Slater. "By working with a consistent contact it has felt like we have had an extension of our team who is able to fill gaps in our knowledge and experience at the most crucial times.”

"The social enterprise training course run by Coventry & Warwickshire CDA, gave us the information and confidence we needed to take over the running of our community nursery which was under threat of closure. They took care of all the paperwork to register the new company which allowed us to concentrate on the other aspects."
