Applications for Invest4 grants are opening again on 1 August, so if you're are looking for funding to help their business grow, make sure that you don't miss out! The grants are only available until 3 October 2022 or when the funding phase has been allocated. There's over £160,000 of grant money to be allocated, on a first-come, first-served basis.

To have the best chance of being successful with their grant application, we have our grant workshops to take you through the application process.  Our Invest4 Boot Camps - Fit for Finance and Money Sense help create the supporting documents such as business plan and cashflow forecasts.
