About s4r

 

The s4r (solutions4recession) programme was initiated in April 2009 by the University of the West of England to assist individuals and businesses impacted by the current economic recession.
Utilising money made available through HEFCE’s Economic Challenge Investment Fund, s4r has developed a series of free and subsidised services to address the needs of those affected during these difficult times.
