Entrepreneurs: GROW Confidence, Community, Possibility
The third round of our one-of-a-kind fund for entrepreneurs is now open for applications.
GROW launched with a party that brought together around 150 people from across the borough and beyond!
Guests heard inspiring stories from entrepreneurs from previous rounds of GROW, and learned what’s ahead for the 2026 programme, including:
- £10,000 non-repayable grant + access to £5k–£15k support to become investment ready
- Equity-free investment from £25,000
- Group learning and one-to-one coaching
- A supportive community of entrepreneurs to help you grow
- The chance to pay it forward- investment repayments are reinvested back into the borough

If you missed the launch party or you want to know more before you apply, register for an online information session on Wednesday 11th of March.
Attend to hear more about the support available, gain insight into what social investment is, and ask any questions.
We will open up another information session later in March, if there is demand for it.
