The maximum total project spend is £10,000 (ex. VAT), of which you would receive back £10,000.
If a group of businesses want to collaborate in a venture to, for example, paint a parade of shop fronts or site some street furniture, then your combined individual application for grants can contribute up to 100% of the project, subject to the maximum individual £10000 business limit.
You must be a constituted body, registered company or group of registered businesses working together.
Alternatively, you could be planning to register as a new business with HMRC, but this must be done before the grant is claimed. However, as part of the grant condition, if you have never traded before and have no track record of success, you will need to demonstrate that you have sought some learning about being in business, such as an Open University course or a local start-up workshop with a demonstrable achievement at the end. Get in touch with our business advisers if you need further information.
You must be able deliver the project and its benefits before claiming back the agreed grant. Following the application process, you will agree your sustainable growth idea with our business advisers and get quotes to carry it through.
Once delivered, you must ensure that the benefits promised are measured and achieved before you are able to submit your receipts to claim your grant money.
Don't quite meet all the requirements? Don't worry, get in touch for a chat and we'll see if we can help.
You will need to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) which will be reviewed and supported by a business adviser to ensure the fit with the overall scheme.
This EOI should demonstrate your proposal and how the improvements will benefit the local area, making it more attractive to visitors.
Once agreed your application fits the criteria, you will be asked to complete Stage 2 of the application.
Applications can only be submitted online.
This is the full application on which the panel will make its decision to award or decline the grant.
You will be asked to provide full details of your proposal including timescales, delivery information, cash flow management (as grants are only paid in arrears following completion of the project) and three quotes for any items that will be paid for by this fund.
Your application will be scored by a panel made up of senior council officers, elected ward members and a nominated, local town/chamber representative. Decisions will be made within 1 month of applying.
We have business advisers at all our centres who are happy to discuss your ideas and to help with your application. Find your nearest centre, and get in touch to make an appointment:
