Harrogate BID has announced the launch of a further round of match funding grants worth up to £750 to support members to improve shop fronts and accessibility.
Every year, the BID provides the match funding to levy paying businesses for support with improvement work. This helps to create a great first impression for any visitors to the town – and allows residents and business owners in Harrogate to take pride in their town – tying into one of the BID’s term 2 objectives.
The BID will provide match funding up to £750 towards these improvement works. All members within the Harrogate BID area are eligible to apply for the grant – which is available on a first come first served basis.
The aim is to offer investment into repairs and redecorations of business entrances and streets, refurbishment or replacement of graphics and signage and improvements on accessibility including the installation of ramps, handraild and automatic doors.
Matthew Chapman, Harrogate BID Manager, said: “Harrogate is always championed as the jewel in Yorkshires crown and we know that first impressions really do count.
“This is why we are proud to once again launch the Shop Front Match Funding Grant to support our members and this worthy representation.”
