More Support For Harborough Businesses Impacted By Pandemic

Written by on 1st October 2021

More cash is being made available to help businesses across Harborough recover from the impact of the pandemic.

Applications are being invited as the second round of the ‘Additional Restrictions Grant Scheme’ is launched today by the District Council.

It is aimed at supporting firms in becoming more accessible to customers on-line, saving money on bills by becoming more energy efficient and helping those who had not yet received support from other grant initiatives.

Around £210,000 of government money was handed out to over 100 local businesses in the first round of the grant scheme.

Cllr Phil King, Leader of Harborough District Council, said: “I’m delighted that businesses once again have this opportunity. These grants are a joint enterprise allowing businesses to invest their own money, as required, with additional investment provided through grants, to help them trade in innovative, cleaner and greener ways.”

Applications will close on Monday 13 December 2021, with the third and final round opening in early January 2022.
