Welcome to Business4Life 2011/2012

Business4Life (B4L) is a scheme that gives young professionals the opportunity to develop their management skills and raise money for charity.

The initiative, run by Wessex Water, challenges a small team of individuals from various backgrounds to manage a business.

This year's team has been set the target to raise £40,000 for WaterAid.

Developing new skills is a key incentive to the early stages of B4L. Hands-on training gives an ideal platform for a young group to set up a ‘mini business’ and to gain experience that can benefit their personal development, their employer and of course, WaterAid!

The B4L 2011/2012 includes staff from Wessex Water and other companies in the region such as Mildren, Halcrow, Trant, Nomenca, ATS, and GPS.

This year’s programme was officially launched at Wessex Water’s operation centre on 5th May 2011. The team then had a three day trip to Wales for team building.

If you would like to find out more about the scheme, or you think an individual in your business may be interested in B4L, the Get Involved section has more information and contacts.
