Rural Development Programme - Pre Application Workshops for Funding

If you live or operate an enterprise in a rural area, you may be eligible to apply for grant funding from the Rural Development Programme. However, you must attend an information workshop before submitting an application.

Background

All applicants must attend a Pre-Application Workshop before they can submit an application. The workshop will provide potential applicants with information about the Rural Development Programme and its processes, with the overarching aim of ensuring high quality applications. It will set out clearly, and at the very outset, what is possible and what is not, the requirements of applying for funding and the key features of implementation should the application be successful.

Why Attend?

It will help to prepare you for submitting your application. Attendance is mandatory. You cannot apply for funding unless you do! You will be issued with a reference number at the workshop, which you must note on your application. We will be providing a timescale for the opening and closing of calls for applications at these events, e.g. applicants may be invited to submit applications within an agreed period following attendance.
