Grants
Whether your business is no more than a great idea or you've already started trading, there is a variety of funding and support available to help you develop or grow your venture.
We can provide guidance on the most appropriate grant for you and support you throughout the application process.

Regional and National Funding
Our business advisers can also advise on additional regional or national funding that you may be eligible to apply for. This can range in value and can often require a contribution from the recipient company or individual.
