Go Digital Grant Scheme still open for applications
Businesses in Harborough District can apply for grants to help them thrive and grow.
The grant scheme from Harborough District Council, alongside Green and Innovate grants, is designed to provide vital financial support for local organisations.
The Go Digital scheme supports the adoption of digital technologies to improve business performance and enhance customer engagement.
Funding of up to £2,000 is available to support projects that align with the Go Digital theme.
To qualify, businesses must have completed the Leicestershire Business Advice Service (LBAS) programme and must include an LBAS action plan in their grant application.
The grants will close on Thursday 31 October 2024, however funds will be allocated on a first come first served basis for those who meet the criteria, so early application is encouraged.

These grants are being managed and distributed by Harborough District Council using £46,000 received from the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
This project builds on the success of the 2023 UK Shared Prosperity Fund Grant Scheme which supported local businesses.
The UK Shared Prosperity Fund is a central pillar of the UK government’s Levelling Up agenda and provides £2.6 billion of funding for local investment by March 2025. The Fund aims to improve pride in place and increase life chances across the UK investing in communities and place, supporting local business, and people and skills.
