Bridgend County Borough Council
Flexible start-up capital grant of £250–£4,000, covering up to 50% of eligible project costs, for new and existing micro-businesses in Bridgend County Borough — funding equipment, premises costs, and other eligible start-up expenditure. Historically delivered through a partnership with UK Steel Enterprise; worth confirming it's still live given a similarly structured Swansea scheme has since folded into a newer Pre-start Grant.
Amount
