Businesses in Lichfield and Burntwood are being offered the chance to access free advice on how to prepare for Brexit.

The support is being given by a team of advisors from the Greater Birmingham and Solihull Local Enterprise Partnership.

They will seek to help businesses understand new rules being introduced once a transition period ends at the start of 2021.

Councillor Iain Eadie, Lichfield District Council’s cabinet member for investment, economic Growth and tourism, said:

> “Businesses have just under a year to prepare ahead of the end of the transition period.  
>  
> “If you’re unsure what Brexit might mean for your business, please take advantage of the resource.  
>  
> “The advisors are available to help you navigate your way through the changes ahead so your business doesn’t lose out as we exit the EU.  
>  
> “Their services are free to use, so book a meeting today.”  
>  
> Cllr Iain Eadie, Lichfield District Council

National survey figures have suggested that a third of all businesses have not truly considered the impact of the UK withdrawing from the EU.

> “As the UK and EU work through negotiating a trade deal and what this will mean, contacting the advisory team now will help local businesses face the likely outcomes and to be as prepared as possible.”  
>  
> Cllr Iain Eadie, Lichfield District Council
