DAERA’s pilot Rural Social Economy Investment Scheme is open now for applications.
The scheme is aimed at rural social enterprises that have already been trading for at least 12 months. Social enterprises earn almost all their income from trading goods or services as well as having a social purpose and ensuring any profits are re-invested in the business.
The Scheme offers grants of between £25,000-£50,000. The scheme is open to applications until 5pm Friday 11 December 2020.
Support for applicants is available through a virtual assistant that can be emailed at [email protected]
