Local Authority Discretionary Grant Fund

NEDDC has launched its Local Authority Discretionary Grants Fund, with the application form and Discretionary Grants Fund Guidance available on the Council's website.

This fund is aimed at certain small and micro businesses which: are not eligible to access the Small Business Grant Fund (SBGF) and the Retail Hospitality and Leisure Grant Fund (RHLGF); have relatively high ongoing, fixed property-related costs, and can demonstrate that they have suffered a significant fall in income due to COVID-19.

If you know of any businesses interested in finding out more please signpost them to the links above or to the NEDDC Business Advice web page:

The fund is provisionally open until 12th June in the first instance, for grants of up to £25,000.
