Financial support

Support Available

Financial Investment Packages:

Financial Investment Packages are available to fund new income generating activity, with the emphasis being on the creation of new jobs and where applicable, new businesses.

These are usually for up to £10,000 and are comprised of a mixture of grant and interest free loan.  The exact make up of the package between grant and loan will be decided by a panel who will consider the business plan and cashflow forecast before making any decisions.

The loan element of the package is extremely soft, being interest free with an initial six month repayment holiday, followed by 30 equal monthly repayments.

Consultancy Support:

Consultancy support is available (following an analysis of the needs of your organisation) to start or progress your business to the next stage of development.  This is heavily subsidised, and often is completely free of charge!

Further financial support:

Sourcing business development grants or loans for new projects, or the expansion of existing services, is further aspect of the help we can provide. But once again these will only be available where an increase in earned income and employment generation can be demonstrated.
