Budgeting for Brexit
Local businesses have an opportunity to apply for a fund to help them adapt to the changes in a post-Brexit Welsh economy.
The Welsh Government has launched a £1million Brexit Resilience Fund which is available to Welsh businesses.
Cllr Martin Weale, Powys County Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration, said: “This funding from the Welsh Government is welcomed and would be of benefit to Powys businesses, who will need to adapt to changes in the post-Brexit Welsh economy.
“If your business meets the above criteria and has a project in mind that would help you build resilience and cope with the changes you may face post Brexit, this fund is for you and I would urge small and medium-sized businesses to consider applying.”
Business Wales is offering eligible businesses the opportunity to apply for funding of between £10,000 and £100,000 up to 50% of project costs.

To apply, businesses must:

· register with Business Wales and complete the Brexit Toolkit on application
