Local Growth Fund
Conwy Business Growth & Resilience Programme
This programme is funded through the Welsh Government Local Growth Fund (LGF) for North Wales Transition Year 2026-27 and delivered by Conwy County Borough Council.
To support timely delivery of the programme, applications will be invited ahead of formal approval of the scheme by the Lead Authority.
Applications will be accepted and may be assessed during this period; however, funding awards cannot be made until formal approval has been secured.
