Dorset Growth Hub is actively looking to award grants to Dorset SMEs towards the cost of projects or purchasing machinery that will lead to growth, diversification and employment retention/increase in the manufacturing and engineering sector.

About These Clinics

The aim of these short 1-2-1 zoom meetings is for businesses to determine quickly whether a machine/project/plan they have in mind is eligible for grant funding from Dorset Growth Hub.

If your plan looks to be eligible, Dawn will be able to talk you through the grant process so you can get an idea of what is needed to apply and the time frames you can expect. Dawn will give you all the tools you need and answer any questions you may have to apply for our grants.

What will I take away from the meeting?

• You will know if your project is eligible for a grant, what to include in your application and what is expected from the grant panel.

• You will also understand the grant process, procurement guidelines and payment requirements.

• You will also receive additional tips and guidance, giving your application a better chance of being approved.
