Ends 2019
BUSINESS GRANTS AVAILABLE
Grants Still Available for Businesses in Rural Areas, including New Forest, southern Test Valley and southern Wiltshire.
​
The EU’s New Forest LEADER grants can be used to fund investment in certain types of buildings, equipment and machinery to help small businesses grow and/or create jobs. However the scheme is due to end in 2019, so businesses are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
​
LEADER can grant fund up to 40% of the investment cost (for commercial projects) up to a maximum grant amount of £75,000. The minimum grant amount you can apply for is £5,000.
Visit the New Forest LEADER website at www.newforestleader.org.uk for information on what LEADER can fund and how to apply.
