Start-up businesses in Telford & Wrekin can apply for grant funding following the relaunch of a council grant scheme.
Telford & Wrekin Council has relaunched its ‘Pride in Our High Street’ grants programme where the focus of the funding programme for the next 12 months will continue to prioritise start-up trial grants and start-up grants.
These grants will exclusively target businesses either opening in vacant units or those seeking to test innovative business concepts at established markets across Telford and Wrekin’s six borough high streets in Dawley, Madeley, Oakengates, Ironbridge, Newport and Wellington.
Councillor Lee Carter, Telford & Wrekin Council’s Cabinet Member for Place (the Economy & Neighbourhood Services), expressed his enthusiasm for the programme’s relaunch, stating: “Our ‘Pride in Our High Street grants initiative embodies our dedication to fostering business resilience and growth within our communities.
“By focusing on start-ups and strategic high street locations, we aim to continue to inject vitality and vibrancy into our local economy.”
Start-up trial grants will provide support of up to £2,500, while start-up grants will provide up to £10,000.
