Small businesses in Warwickshire hit by the coronavirus pandemic can apply for new grants from the County Council to boost their recovery.

Warwickshire County Council’s £250,000 grant fund is to support the retail and hospitality sectors in the county. 

Small and micro businesses in the retail and hospitality sectors that have been trading for a minimum of 1 year, can apply for grants between £2,000 and £7,500 to put towards the costs of capital investments.  

The deadline for applications is 9am on Friday 11th September. 

A spokesperson from Warwickshire County Council says grant applications could be for refurbishing or refitting property to increase footfall, or improve visitor experience; creating an online sales presence; investing in dedicated IT and computer software; or the purchase of minor equipment. 

The capital investments must be part of a clear plan to sustain and grow the businesses, as well as to safeguard existing jobs.  

Councillor Izzi Seccombe, Leader of Warwickshire County Council, said: “The Retail and Hospitality Fund is part of our multi-million pound package of support for businesses. We hope as many eligible firms as possible will apply for the fund which is designed to stimulate growth and sustain retail and hospitality businesses across the county.”
