Business review

Working in farming or crofting can be extremely rewarding, but it can also be tough. Prices fluctuate and circumstances change meaning that what was once a manageable and profitable business no longer is.

Managing a business can also be extremely stressful and time-consuming meaning that you lack the time to discuss your business plan and investigate new opportunities or respond to looming threats. This stress and anxiety can have knock-on effect to your personal life and potentially impact your mental and physical wellbeing.

We recognise that this is an important issue for a lot of farmers and crofters throughout Scotland and that’s why we work in partnership with the Farm Advisory Service who offer grants of up to £1,000 (excl. VAT) to have a professional consultant review your business and put a plan in place to help you and your business move forward.

One of our case officers can explain how the process works, the information required and keep in regular contact to discuss how things are progressing.
