My BusinessTaku PakihiSupport for self-employment

CCS DISABILITY ACTION is a nationwide organisation that provides support, advocacy and information for disabled people. We work in partnership with disabled people, families and whānau to support them to have choice and control in their lives. As well as creating individually tailored supports, we work in communities to identify and remove barriers so that all people can lead positive and connected lives. We also lobby and advocate for local and national policies that ensure all people’s rights are upheld.

About us Mō mātou

ARE YOU PASSIONATE AND MOTIVATED? Our My Business programme can support, connect and fund disabled people who want to become, or who already are, self-employed. This could be your opportunity to finally create that business that you’ve been dreaming of, or grow the business that you already have to the next level.We can provide personalised recommendations, connections and funding for a wide range of business-related support services.

THE SUPPORT SERVICES may include business mentoring and training, shared office space, training, equipment, and help with the practical aspects of starting a business. These services will be delivered by specialist organisations, usually in your local community. The type of support we provide depends on your specific needs and those of the business, so it is different for everybody.

The form contains questions about your ambitions and about the types of business supports that would be most helpful to you.
