New guidance for social landlords highlights the advantages of encouraging tenants to run a business from home in order to boost their employment prospects. The guidance, produced by the Chartered Institute of Housing has been launched by Grant Shapps MP (Housing Minister) at a Small Business Summit. Grant Shapps MP said: "I want all social tenants with the ambition, drive and vision to set up their own businesses to be given all the help they need to do so. Tenants should have the same opportunities as anyone else, and landlords have the key to unlocking this untapped entrepreneurial talent. I want them to get the message out loud and clear to their residents that wherever possible, and in the majority of cases, they will be able to set up and run their new businesses from home.” CIH guidance 'Running a Business from Home' can be downloaded from the CIH website.
