The West Yorkshire Combined Authority is launching a competitive call for development projects and is seeking to award the winning bidders a maximum of £25,000 to deliver a pilot business start-up project within West Yorkshire (Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds and Wakefield districts). Each organisation can apply for up to a maximum of £25,000. The total budget available is £100,000. This development fund is focused on providing support to help individuals overcome a defined barrier that is (or has the potential to) preventing them from launching and establishing their own business. 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 form 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 call for projects 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.
