TO SUPPORT the growth of his businesses – Forbes Boat Care in Oban and The Yot Spot in Ardrishaig – Michael Forbes has sourced funding and support from several of the organisations taking part in Argyll Enterprise Week, including the SJ Noble Trust, DSL Business Finance Ltd and Argyll and Bute Council’s Business Gateway.

This allowed us to invest in the business which meant I could take on full-time staff. All we could offer at the time was seasonal work, but the grant meant we could keep someone on throughout the year. Without that I don’t think we would have taken the plunge and taken someone on a full-time contract. We now have five full-time staff in Oban, including myself.
