Silver Lining Social is proud to be an Approved Skills Boost Provider for Worcestershire and Herefordshire, which means you could access 50% funding towards our services.

50% off marketing coaching? Yes please! Skills Boost can cover half the cost, you just bring the ideas.

What is Skills Boost funding?

Skills Boost is a funded programme designed to help local business owners and employees upskill, grow and get specialist support to boost their business. The scheme offers a 50% rebate on eligible training and coaching, making it much more affordable to invest in your development.

Whether you’re a solo founder wearing all the hats or part of a small team looking to refine your marketing strategy, Skills Boost can help you take the next step without the full financial commitment.

How the funding works

• Open to business owners and employees based in Worcestershire or Herefordshire

• You’ll pay for your chosen sessions upfront, then claim back 50% via the Skills Boost programme

• Available for eligible 1:1 coaching, training or strategy sessions that build your skills and knowledge

How you can use it with Silver Lining Social

As a Skills Boost Provider, I can offer funded sessions tailored to your needs. This could include:

• Social Media Content Planning – creating a clear, strategic plan so you know exactly what to post and why

• Website or Instagram Audits – practical feedback and tips to make your online presence work harder

• Local SEO Support – getting your Google Business Profile optimised so local customers can find you easily

• Email or Blog Content Ideas – planning content that engages your audience and drives results

• Launch or Offer Planning – mapping out a clear marketing plan for your next big idea

Real results from real clients

One of the best parts of my work is seeing clients walk away with the skills and confidence to put their marketing plans into action. Nick, who joined my online TikTok for Beginners workshop, shared: "Grace's workshop was so valuable. I learned a huge amount about using TikTok effectively and how to market my business purposefully. The content was engaging and thorough and the whole session flowed really well. Thanks Grace – a massive success for me."

With Skills Boost funding, sessions like this could cost you half the price, but deliver the same big impact on your business growth.

Why this matters now

If you’ve been putting off getting help because of budget concerns, Skills Boost removes some of that barrier. It’s a chance to get calm, strategic and creative marketing support that’s tailored to your business, without paying the full price.
