Craig Wood, NatWest retail banking director for North Manchester and Lancashire, said: "Small businesses are at the heart of Greater Manchester’s economy, and we recognise the important role they play in communities across the region.

"We also know that by working with GM Business Growth Hub across our branch network, we are better placed to support new businesses to scale and grow."
