Find Funding to Support Your Business Through East Riding 4 Business

Are you looking at the next stage in your business development and wondering if there is any financial assistance available?

Whether you are just starting out or looking at your next growth plans, the East Riding 4 Business site gives you access to a free and easy-to-use database. Providing you with a one-stop shop to search for national and international funding sources and giving you details on thousands of grants, loans, and other forms of financial assistance.

Use the 'search for funding' tab when you know what you want funding for or the 'browse for funding' tab to look through different funding categories.

In addition, check out below, the range of local grants for businesses available from the East Riding of Yorkshire Council UK Shared Prosperity Fund and Rural England Prosperity Fund.

These are delivered in conjunction with our team of experienced business advisers, who will work with you to identify which project(s) will help your business grow and improve and also what grants may be available to support with the costs.

Whilst we are able to support most businesses with our grant schemes, there are some exclusions, including core farming activity, horticulture, aquaculture, forestry and fisheries.  Grants are mainly aimed at small and medium-sized businesses; however, we can support larger businesses where economic need and benefit are demonstrated. Grants are available for between £250 and £50,000 with a maximum contribution of 50% towards identified eligible costs of the project, subject to the maximum amounts as stated on the different types of projects as listed below. Please be aware that approval must be in place for any grant prior to commencing with the project, we cannot fund any project retrospectively.

Training Grants – Up to 50% of project costs available to a maximum of £1,000 per business

Grants of up to £1,000 (minimum £250) per business are available to support training costs. This does not include coaching, mentoring or other similar consultancy projects and can only be applied for if no other funding is available. Employees receiving the training must be in a permanent position (or undertaking the training to secure a permanent position) in the business and must be a resident of the Yorkshire and Humber region.

Grants can be applied to support the costs of training as identified through a training needs analysis (TNA) to be undertaken by the business with their employee(s). The training must clearly add value to the business and support growth plans. This could include training to support the development or promotion of a new product or service or ways to improve process, productivity or efficiency within the business.
