CUMBERLAND EQUIPMENT GRANT OPEN NOW!

Cumberland Councils’ capital grant scheme has some underspend and they have just opened a short application window to use up the remaining funds.  The grants are for up to £5000 towards the purchase of equipment at up to 50% funding.  We believe agricultural equipment is not eligible, but it may help farmers with diversified enterprises or contracting businesses.  The deadline is 12noon on Friday 12th December and the equipment would need to be purchased and the grant claimed by 31st January 2026. More information is at Cumberland Grant Funding and Advice | Cumbria Growth Hub and we can help with applications and support is available from the Cumbria Growth Hub.
