Support & Funding for Waste businesses

WMR keep up to date with new funding opportunities that may be available to our clients.

If you would like to tap into this knowledge then give us a call for a free consultation with us.

There are a number of different types of funding support that may become available to waste business from time to time. Some of these are briefly summarised below:

• Training – this could involve the Government funding or part funding an in-house training course through an approved Training Centre. For instance the Government's Train-To-Gain organisation has introduced a new Leadership and Management scheme which will give a £500 grant to eligible organisations for training. It will give up to a further £500 in matched funding for training such as in-house courses.
  
• Capital Grant Funding - When Government departments feel that a strategic need or market failure has been identified, capital grants can be made available to help address this perceived shortfall. Capital grants are not usually available on a rolling basis and WMR endeavour to keep up to date with each programme and its deadline date for applications. Some grant schemes will offer low costs loans or equity release programmes as one of their options.
  
• Consultancy Support – There are various schemes available for which waste companies can apply. These could include sales and marketing support, business reviews, business plans and management support.
