Welcome to 2025, the year of freelancing support.

Shib and I have big ambitions for 2025 - it’s the year of freelancing.support.

Our mission is simple enough: to make freelancing more simple, more supportive, and more sustainable. One of our objectives is to reduce the number of freelancers who feel overwhelmed in their first year, and to get more freelancers past their fifth year - a point at which 60% of small businesses have failed.

There is so much great information out there - but it can be hard to find, and can be hard to know what is impartial and good quality. So we’re providing navigation to the freelancing support ecosystem, along with our own resources and content to fill the gaps - on topics which get less attention than they should, such as mental health for freelancers.

For first-time-freelancers, we’ve launched Flightplan, our co-pilot to the first years of freelancing. It’s a guided programme to take you from the very first dreams of freelancing, all the way through delivering your first project, completing your tax return at the end of your financial year, and planning for the future. It’s just £99, and you may be able to access it for free via our friends and partners, or funded by your clients.

For established freelancers, we’ve got something coming for you too - but even now, our free resources library has content on a wide range of topics, which will be continually growing, powered by your questions and the freelancing community.

We’re excited to be on this journey with you.

Matthew & Shib.
