Description

This notice is to serve as information only to alert potential bidders to the upcoming opportunity to deliver Start Up Projects across the West Yorkshire region with the aim of supporting individuals to overcome a defined barrier that is (or has the potential to) preventing them from launching and establishing their own business. Interested parties do not need to submit an expression of interest or respond to this notice, as the tender will be advertised as an open tender on Contracts Finder when it goes live. The key objective of this fund is to ensure that anyone in West Yorkshire who wants to start a business can access good quality support and guidance to do so. Particularly individuals from our key demographics including (but not limited to): women, individuals from an ethnic minority, those who self-identify as having a disability, those with low education attainment and those from deprived areas of West Yorkshire. This project aims to better understand the barriers that these individuals face and test the impact of targeted support aimed at helping these individuals overcome a defined barrier. Learnings from this call for project will be used to design future start-up provision. The total budget available for this development funding is £165,000, and bidding organisations can apply for up to a maximum of £25,000 to deliver a pilot business start-up project within West Yorkshire (Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds and Wakefield districts).
