Funding for social start-up is back!

Net zero carbon start-up grants offer financial support to budding Welsh social businesses to get trading or investment ready, plus technical support to embed climate friendly practices.

The Net zero carbon start-up grant is a pilot scheme which aims to help get social business ‘start-ups’ off the ground, while at the same time embedding climate friendly practices.

Round 2 of the scheme is now open to any up-and-coming social business or trading voluntary organisation in Wales. You don’t need to be an environmental or climate change focussed group to apply.

This is a pilot project with an initial grant pot of £150,000 to support 12 social enterprises. Demand is expected to be quite high, and it will be subject to competitive selection.

Find out more on the Net zero carbon start-up grant page. The deadline for Expressions of Interest in this round is 21 September 2022.
