Welsh Government Offers Game-Changing Funding for Businesses: Reduce Costs and Future- Proof Your Operations15/04/24

Attention business owners in Wales! Are you looking to cut your running costs and future-proof your operations? The Welsh Government has just announced an incredible opportunity for businesses like yours to access funding that could make a significant impact on your bottom line.

Starting in mid-April 2024, eligible micro, small, and medium-sized businesses in the retail, hospitality, and leisure sectors will have the chance to apply for grants ranging from £5,000 to £10,000. This funding, part of the £20 million Future Proofing Fund, is specifically designed to help businesses strengthen their future trading position by investing in renewable energy technology, upgrading premises, and improving energy efficiency.

Imagine what a difference an investment in renewable energy could make for your business. Not only will you reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future, but you'll also see immediate benefits in the form of lower energy bills. Plus, with support for upgrades to systems and machinery, you'll increase efficiency and productivity, positioning your business for long-term success.

But that's not all – Finance Minister Rebecca Evans emphasizes that this support is part of a broader effort to alleviate the cost-of-living and cost-of-doing-business crises facing businesses across Wales. In addition to the Future Proofing Fund, the Welsh Government is providing ongoing support for retail, leisure, and hospitality businesses with rates relief, totaling £78 million.

Here's why you can't afford to miss out on this opportunity:

  1. Practical Support for Long-Term Planning: The grants offered through the Future Proofing Fund provide practical support that aids in long-term business planning, helping you navigate through tough times and emerge stronger than ever.

  2. Significant Cost Savings: With grants covering up to 75% of project costs, or £10,000, whichever is lesser, you'll have the opportunity to make substantial improvements to your operations without breaking the bank.

  3. Easy Access to Funding: An eligibility checker will open in mid-April 2024, with applications opening in May 2024. This means you'll have the chance to quickly and easily apply for funding that could transform your business.
