'My grandad inspired my fashion brand for people with disabilities – now I'm moving into sportswear'
When Hanan Tantush saw how her grandfather was struggling to find clothes to wear during his cancer treatment, she knew she had to help. Now the Cheshire fashion brand she set up to make stylish clothes for people with disabilities has won a Manchester competition for entrepreneurs – and Hanan says she now wants to move into sportswear as she pitches for an even bigger prize. Her business Intotum won the £70,000 to win the Manchester first round of NatWest Pitch, a programme that gives small business owners a chance to compete for a share of £1m. The bank now wants more inspirational north west entrepreneurs to take part in the competition's next rounds. READ MORE: Police launch investigation after water in Cheshire canal suddenly 'disappears' READ MORE: Tragedy as man dies at Manchester Airport The first round of the contest for firms from around the UK was held at NatWest's Spinningfields Accelerator hub for small firms. After two hours of debate, Hanan was named the winner. Hanan says on her website that she started her business after her grandfather found it hard to find stylish clothes when he began wearing a stoma and urostomy bag during his third battle with cancer. She did not want her grandfather to feel self-conscious about his clothes and tried to find him adaptive clothing that worked with his disability – and she soon realised there was a gap in the market. So she founded Intotum in Neston in 2023 to 'bridge the gap between function and fashion'. After her Manchester win, Hanan said: 'I'm feeling very overwhelmed, it's not really hit me yet, but I'm honestly kind of lost for words that I've just won. 'We make comfortable, functional and fashionable clothing for the disabled community, so we take away the need to alter or put up your clothing by making ready to wear clothing that has all the functions and the comfort that you would need every day. 'We're going to be using the money from NatWest for our next collection and for a really exciting sportswear project because we're trying to create a new class of adaptive sports clothing.' Two other businesses won funding at the Manchester event. Jas Schembri-Stothart of teenagers' healthcare app Luna Life, received £20,000 – while Alex Somervell, creator of scams protection tool Ask Silver, won £10,000. NatWest has launched the £1m Pitch competition to mark the 10th anniversary of NatWest's Accelerator programme, which has supported 10,000 entrepreneurs across the UK since 2015. Anyone who wants to enter needs to submit a 60-second video pitch explaining how winning a share of the £1m pot would help them grow their business. The people behind the best pitches will be chosen to take part in future live events in London or Birmingham – where they will give a 10 minute 'Dragons' Den'-style pitch in front of a panel of judges. The competition is open to any business anywhere in the UK. NatWest hopes to host more events in Bristol, Scotland and Northern Ireland next year. After the Manchester event, Darren Pirie, head of the NatWest Accelerator, said: 'Congratulations to all of the finalists and the winners from this inaugural round – the quality of the entrants and the standard of the businesses made this opening event a real challenge for the judges. Given Manchester and the north's long history as a leader in entrepreneurship and innovation it felt like the right place to begin this celebration. 'As Britain's biggest bank for start-ups, we believe that supporting small business growth is key to a strong economy which is why we are thrilled to launch NatWest Pitch to do just that. 'As we mark 10 years of the NatWest Accelerator, this competition is a fantastic opportunity for entrepreneurs to showcase their ideas, telling us about their successes and milestones to date and how they'll use the funding to grow to the next level. My advice is that if you are interested in future applications, don't be modest – tell us what makes your business special.'

COLUMN: New ideas needed to make Cowes Week more relevant
Two weeks ago, Cowes was packed with people of all nationalities crowding into the restaurants and pubs, the bars and the sailing clubs. Next morning, the Solent was crowded with vessels of many sizes as the Centenary Rolex Fastnet Race started. This week, the clubs and bars have been busy again with Cowes Week – the 199th Regatta. Entries are slightly down this year. As the Fastnet Race ends in Cherbourg, many boats are not back yet from the continent. The expense of Cowes Week to the crews is also a factor in play, and perhaps as we approach the bicentenary of the Regatta, it's time for a rethink. To make the event as relevant and fun as we can for the next 100 years. Factors militating against the current format are not only the expense (renting a house for the crew in Cowes now costs thousands for the week), but also the time requirement. Cowes Week really harks back to an age when there were fewer leisure opportunities, much less availability of foreign holidays, and people being in more secure employment. Covid kick-started the introduction of remote working for many office jobs. It's noticeable how much less busy the mainland ferries are with commuters on Mondays and Fridays, as employees now take those days to work from home. So instead of taking a whole week out of your leave allowance, it seems you can now work part of a week with a couple of good excuses. If we had a four-day regatta for the Black Group (bigger boats) starting on Saturday, participants could "work from home" on Monday and take one day off on Tuesday. Then if we have a four-day White Group (small boats) regatta starting on Thursday, their sailors too can take one day paid leave, "work from home" on Friday, and sail over the weekend. The smaller boats are largely local so don't need Sunday to relocate to home ports. This would have two big advantages – a free day on Wednesday to spend in the town, boosting the local economy, and greater availability of younger sailors who can fit the event into their modern working practices. Think what fun we could have in Cowes on Wednesday – a great day for aerial displays and so on. A parade of sail would also be great for spectators. The other factor would be the reduction in costs for participants. Instead of paying the very expensive rate for a week (around £1,000 for most Black Group boats), a four-day regatta is going to come in at a rate competitive with Dartmouth and other events. When you consider that boats competing in Cowes Week usually divide the costs between the crew, reducing the costs of racing, food, and accommodation is going to be a big factor in the number of entries. We forget this at our peril. Like most things in life, times change. Habits and expectations change, and generally, if providers of events don't change with them, the event dies out as participation declines. So maybe it is time for a rethink in Cowes.
