Enterprise / Business support

PDT is at the forefront of supporting local business and enterprise in Westminster, Kensington and West London.

Working alongside councils and local businesses we have successfully supported a wide range of initiatives throughout London including shop-front improvement schemes which are changing and improving the face of our local neighbourhoods.

We operate through Portobello Business Centre and Westminster Enterprise Centre.  The centres help local people to set up businesses by providing small grant and loan support, access to business advisors and training in the skills needed to run a successful business.
