Capital grants

Capital grants from £1,000 to £25,000 are available for purchase of equipment/machinery (including green/low carbon) and small scale capital improvements to help grow, diversify, innovate and improve productivity. They can cover up to 50% of the cost of your project, up to the maximum grant limit. A total pot of £207,142 is on offer.

Advice vouchers

Advice vouchers of £500 or £1,000 can be used with a consultant of your choice. No match funding is needed but you can choose to add more to enable more activity.

They can be used for a wide range of topics, including (but not limited to) marketing, website, accountancy, legal, HR, planning, agricultural consultancy, and to help towards the costs of our mentoring and export consultancy programmes.

There is a deadline of midday on 15th May for Expressions of Interest to be submitted and there is support from advisers to help businesses apply.
