A BURNLEY woman has been given a boost by Regenerate Pennine Lancashire to help start a new French and Spanish translation business.

Vanessa Robinson, of Fairfield Drive, set up V Translate for services including document translation and interpreting for businesses that want to make successful working relationships abroad.

She used a free business start-up programme run by Regenerate Pennine Lancashire supported by the European Regional Development Fund.

Vanessa said: “The impact of the programme means I am now able to recognise what I need to do to establish my company.”
