Small firms in Kirklees have been urged to take up a new funding initiative to help them get some good advice.
The Government has launched its Growth Vouchers scheme – a £30m pot of funding for small firms employing up to 49 people.
Firms can apply for a £2,000 voucher to pay for strategic planning advice in the areas of recruiting and developing staff, raising finance and managing cashflow, making the most of digital technology, improving leadership and management skills and marketing and customer service.
To complete the application, firms must provide their Companies House registration number or unique tax reference, registered business address, business turnover details, VAT registration number and PAYE number if applicable as well as a, contact phone number and email address.
Once a business has applied, the firm will be contacted by a delivery partner, who will help determine the area in which the business should seek strategic planning advice.
Once the diagnosis is determined, the delivery partner will lead the business to the Marketplace section of the Enterprise Nation website where the firm will be able to find a suitable Growth Vouchers adviser.
Huddersfield-based chartered accountancy firm Revell Ward is listed on the Marketplace under the “Raising finance and managing cashflow” section and has up to four strategic sessions available.
