setting up a business from scratch

[Cheekystar]

OK, I have the idea, I have the expertise, but I haven't a clue what I have to do to on the business / legal side. I would like to provide a service to companies, therefore don't need office space etc, and thought I could work from home. Can anyone give me any advice or suggest any courses for me to do?

business link are very good, depending on your age, Princes trust can be useful and depending on the area you are in, there are organisations like www.nwes.org.uk.

Also try your local chamber of commerce - ours in Norfolk runs a business workshop for new start businesses.
