RECENT NOSTALGIA: Enterprising Grammar students' business success

Flashpoint Photography began trading the previous October after the Lower Sixth Form students were inspired by the Lincolnshire Young Enterprise Scheme to start up their own business.

Taking photos at parties, balls and other events, their business has taken off and, six months later, the profits are starting to roll in.

Wes Roberts, one of the company’s 17-year-old directors, said: “There were quite a lot of start-up costs, buying the photography equipment and so on, but we’re into profit now, which I reckon is pretty good after just a few months.”
