Powys County Council

Description

UK Shared Prosperity Fund capital grant from Powys County Council helping micro, small, and medium-sized businesses (including those relocating to the county) buy productivity-boosting equipment or invest in greener technologies such as replacement lighting or heating systems.

Amount

£5,000–£25,000 (50% of eligible costs)

Deadline

Rolling / no fixed deadline

Eligibility summary

  • Available in: Wales.
  • Applicant must be a registered business.
  • Most relevant to: Manufacturing, Construction, Creative Arts & Media, Energy & Utilities, Finance & Professional Services, Technology & Digital, Hospitality & Tourism, Retail, Healthcare & Social Care.
Notes
Match funding must be cash from private-sector sources, not services or materials in kind. Relevant to Powys as a large rural county, alongside the wider Mid Wales Transforming Towns Placemaking Grant, since it explicitly supports rural business growth outside town centres. Delivered in discrete rounds rather than continuously open (a recent round's expressions of interest closed 15 September, full applications 3 October) — check the council's website for the next round.
Requirement
Micro, small, and medium-sized businesses (up to 250 employees) trading for at least 6 months in, or relocating to, Powys.

R&D claims and business grants are exactly where a specialist can make the biggest difference — both in claim size and time saved. We're building relationships with vetted professionals who can help with applications like this — register your interest and we'll follow up when we have someone to recommend.

Some of the organisations we may connect you with pay us a referral fee if you use their service. This never affects which listings you see in the directory. No live partner is confirmed yet for this listing.
