Business Without Barriers

Disabled entrepreneurs are an essential part of the UK economy, with disabled-owned small businesses accounting for 8.6 per cent of the turnover of all UK businesses.

The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) have just released an important new report – ‘Business Without Barriers’ - on the issues facing small business owners with a disability or a health condition.  

It reveals the high number of people running SMEs who have a condition and looks at some of the restrictions they may face because of it. It also offers some ideas and recommendations to make access to entrepreneurship easier for people with a condition.

As well as releasing the report, the FSB has also created a new online ‘hub’ on the subject open to all and you can view the hub and download our report in full at Business Without Barriers.

You can see some of the headline stats from it in the graphic below:
