Bounce back with 40% off legal fees
A new fund to help eligible North East SME’s bounce back from the impact of coronavirus has launched.
We’re working with RTC North to offer up to 40% grant funding towards legal project costs up to £4,000. The new funding is available through the Scaleup North East programme and its designed to help SMEs recover from the impact of COVID-19.
To qualify your business must be based within the North East Local Enterprise Partnership region (Durham, Gateshead, Newcastle, Northumberland, North Tyneside, South Tyneside and Sunderland), employ no more than 250 people and turnover no more than £50m.
Free business health check
Of course, every business is different so we’re also offering a free health check to determine what legal advice will help your business most.
Afterwards, if you want to go ahead you can take advantage of the grant funding. If not, then you’ve still gained some fresh insight into how you can take your business forward.
