Arun District Council’s Economic Development Team has worked with all West Sussex authorities to secure £500,000 for grant schemes for small businesses.
The grant, the Local Enterprise and Apprenticeship Platform (LEAP), will provide £83,000 for small businesses in the Arun area.
People hoping to set up a new business, wanting to grow existing small businesses, or wanting to take on an apprentice, apply now for a grant of up to £2,000 towards the cost. Businesses will need to match grant money with other funds.
