The Zenith enterprise programme was such a gift. I loved working with Helen, her passion for small business is infectious and I learned so much along the journey.
I have a better business now. I know where I’m at and where I am going and what I need to do to achieve more. Business is growing, I have more consistency in my sales and I’m getting many more opportunities with great businesses.

The support and expertise I’ve received through Helen from the Zenith Enterprise program have been exceptional. I didn’t even realize this type of business support existed, or how much I truly needed it! I only wish I had discovered it sooner. It’s really opened my eyes to the importance of having a solid strategy in place to build a successful business, rather than just ‘winging it.’
I’m incredibly excited about the direction my business is heading, and it has given me a renewed sense of energy and motivation to move forward.

The Zentith programme has been a game-changer for both me and my business. The 3-day bootcamp was packed with fantastic insights, practical advice, and plenty of lightbulb moments.
Helen and Ray were incredible—always supportive, challenging in the best way, and full of energy. Beyond the sessions, the networking opportunities were invaluable. I connected with so many inspiring people, and it truly felt like we built a supportive community along the way. Thanks to the programme, I’ve refined my strategy, opened up exciting opportunities, and feel much more confident about the future.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Helen Roberts from Richmond Council’s Zenith Enterprise programme. She is a multi-award-winning business strategist with a focus on fast growth for SMEs, which highlights her impressive capabilities.
In a remarkably short time, Helen has offered exceptional assistance, providing me with invaluable knowledge, expertise and support. Her passion for empowering individuals to achieve their full potential while pursuing their passions is truly inspiring. Helen genuinely cares about helping others succeed and her commitment is clearly evident. This is a greatly beneficial initiative by the council.
