Helping Businesses Grow with Purpose:
My New Role as a Help to Grow Mentor
I’m proud to share some exciting news: I am now officially a mentor on the Government’s Help to Grow: Management Course.
This programme is designed to support ambitious small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) in the UK by giving leaders access to world-class training, expert mentors, and proven strategies for growth.
Being recognised as a mentor is a privilege, and I’m looking forward to guiding business owners as they navigate both challenges and opportunities.
Why Mentoring Matters
Mentoring isn’t just about advice, it’s about providing clarity, accountability, and perspective.
Over the years, I’ve seen how the right support can make the difference between a business plateauing and a business thriving. The most successful leaders don’t try to do everything alone; they surround themselves with people who can challenge their thinking and help them stay focused on the bigger picture.
That’s exactly what I aim to bring as a mentor:
Proven strategies to move from ideas to action.
Accountability structures to keep leaders on track.
Confidence building to take calculated risks instead of procrastinating.
Systems and processes that create sustainable growth.
How Grow Up Supports Businesses
Alongside my mentoring work, we’ve launched Grow Up, a business support platform designed to help SMEs not just survive, but scale with purpose.
At Grow Up, we provide:
Tailored growth strategies for businesses at different stages.
Marketing and visibility support, including content creation, SEO, and social media management.
Peer-to-peer learning opportunities where leaders can share experiences and insights.
Mentoring and coaching programmes for founders who want structure, confidence, and accountability.
Our approach is simple: we help business owners cut through the noise, focus on what matters, and build a foundation that balances profit with purpose.
The Bigger Picture
For me, joining the Help to Grow: Management Course as a mentor is more than just recognition.
It’s a chance to combine my personal mission with the work we’re doing at Grow Up, creating a ripple effect where businesses aren’t just working harder, but working smarter.
Because when businesses grow sustainably, everyone benefits: the leaders, the teams, the communities they serve, and the next generation of entrepreneurs watching from the sidelines.
