Redbridge Recovery and Growth Programme
The Business Recovery Programme aims to support businesses in Redbridge at different stages of their business journey, particularly those affected by the challenges during lockdown restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through a series of projects and activities, the programme will help businesses in Redbridge identify the areas where they may need additional support and will give them access to the resources and advice available to help them recover and grow.
Review and Recover
This programme provides support for businesses via advice and guidance sessions, mentoring and online resources.
Businesses will be able to use an online platform to help them assess the needs of their business, build a growth plan and receive advice and guidance from a group of mentors and experts from different business sectors.
Ready to Supply
Provides support for Redbridge SMEs that want to improve their ability to apply for contracts within the private and public sectors.
Through our partnership with East London Business place (ELBP), this programme provides intensive support for Redbridge SMEs that want to improve their ability and bidding-competitiveness when applying for works and contract opportunities across a number of business sectors.
Businesses will receive one to one support and guidance from a dedicated ELBP business advisory team, supported by a bespoke series of capacity-building workshops, webinars and events, all designed to help get local SMEs more ‘ready to supply’ and better equipped to meet the supply-chain entry, purchasing and procurement requirements and standards from a range of prospective clients and buying organisations.
Eligibility criteria
The programme is available from October 2021 to October 2022 and open to all businesses in Redbridge.
You can apply for more than one project by registering online using the link to the relevant programme.
