Business Growth Programme
Business Growth Programme Support
A key requirement for your application is a completed business growth plan.
Our experienced advisers are available to review existing business growth plans or assist in the preparation of new plans, which are a mandatory requirement for grant eligibility. This support may include identifying strategic opportunities for growth, conducting gap analyses, highlighting workforce development and training needs, and ensuring alignment with the objectives of the Business Growth Grant scheme.
Where appropriate, we can also signpost businesses to additional funded programmes such as Business Vitality, and provide access to one-to-one business mentoring. This support is fully funded and delivered at no cost to eligible businesses.
Submit Your Business Growth Plan for Review
To access fully funded support from our Business Support Hub advisers, please complete the online form below.
✅ If you already have a Business Growth Plan, you can upload it directly along with any relevant supporting documents for review.
✅ If you do not yet have a plan, please complete the form with as much information as possible about your business and your growth ambitions — this will help our team begin preparing a tailored Growth Plan with you.
📎 Upload Area: Use the file upload section to attach your Business Growth Plan, strategy documents, investment proposals, or any other useful materials.
💡 The more detail you provide, the better we can support you. Once submitted, one of our advisers will be in touch to discuss next steps.
