APPLYING FOR A SPONSOR LICENCE

Assess

£0

Before we take on a case we always want to establish what the right kind of application is for you and this is what the Assess Stage is all about.

We find out more about you and what you want to achieve. It is an informal discussion which can be delivered how you want it, whether that is over the phone, using video conferencing or at our easily accessible office - it is entirely your choice.

This stage is completely free and there is no obligation to take on our paid services. At the end of the Assess Stage you will have a clear plan as to the range of applications available, the costs involved and how likely you are to get a successful outcome.
