Deadline: 4 August 2025
The REPF Business Grants Scheme allows for rural businesses across Tendring to apply for between £5,000 and £20,000 for capital works to diversify or expand their operations or adopt new technologies to the business.
Funding Information
- Grant amount: between £ 5,000 and £20,000
- Grants must be matched with at least 25% funding from private sources (so, if the total project cost is £10,000, a REPF grant could fund a maximum of £7,500). Match funding can be either revenue or capital. £20,000 in grant funding is the maximum a business can receive from this Scheme but is not a cap on the total project cost.
Eligibility Criteria
- Applications are welcomed from businesses in any sector.
Ineligibility Criteria
- Please note that businesses in Clacton and Holland-on-Sea are not classed as rural and therefore not eligible to apply.
- Unfortunately, due to DEFRA Guidelines, they cannot support projects which received support from any of the following:
- The Farming in Protected Landscapes Programme
- The Farming Investment Fund
- The Platinum Jubilee Village Hall Improvement Grant Fund
