SREG interview goes out on Dales Radio
28.11.2019
Founded in 2010, the Skipton and Ripon Enterprise Group (SREG) is a network of experienced business leaders dedicated to providing enterprise mentoring to local companies. SREG Mentors come from a broad range of business backgrounds and support is both free and confidential.
SREG’s aim is to support North Yorkshire’s long-established enterprise culture and ensure the continued growth and economic prosperity of the region. We do this by connecting successful and experienced business people, prepared to offer some time and expertise, with business owners and entrepreneurs seeking to overcome enterprise challenges.
Our role is to bring business people together – not provide business advisory services.
Since SREG began, we have built a network of over 50 mentors and have supported over 150 companies. Our clients range from start-ups to companies that have been in business for several generations and span industry sectors from retail and hospitality to professional services and manufacturing.

As a group, we also put on a breakfast meeting every couple of months, usually with a presentation or talk on a business topic by a key business specialist.
SREG is based in the Skipton and Ripon area and beyond, stretching across a large part of North Yorkshire’s Pennine and Dales. It covers many towns and villages including Skipton, Ripon, Settle, Sutton-in-Craven, Cross Hills, Ingleton, Bentham, Masham, Pateley Bridge, Grassington, Boroughbridge, and Northallerton.
SREG was founded by a number of successful business people from the area and today is run by a small leadership team.
The leadership team work to ensure that SREG is enterprising, friendly, informal, voluntary and independent.
