A YOUNG entrepreneur has been given an extra boost to his business.

Andrew Shaw from Burnley, who set up his mobile music workshop business earlier this year, has been given a year's free RAC membership to help keep him on the road.

Andrew was given a £2,000 loan and £1,500 grant from the Prince's Trust when he launched his venture.

Part of the business start-up support provided by the trust was the opportunity to apply for free RAC membership.

"Having a vehicle is essential as I have to transport all my musical instruments," said Andrew.
