North West Operational Programme - Call for projects
3 February 2012
North West Operational Programme Priority 4 Call
The European Regional Development Fund 2007-13 is announcing a Priority 4 Call for project applications proposing business start-up support in disadvantaged communities and for groups underrepresented in enterprise in the North West of England.
The call aims to approve projects in each sub-regional area that, alongside existing provision, deliver integrated support to individuals in disadvantaged communities and those underrepresented in enterprise to start a business.
It is intended that projects will run for 3 years, starting approximately in April / May 2012 and ending activity by 30 June 2015. It is envisaged that this call will fund a group of mutually supportive projects. Organisations should look to work collaboratively to achieve the greatest economy of scale and impact in developing applications.
Proposals should take into account how they will work with Local Enterprise Partnerships and other local organisations.
The provision of this service will be on a sub-regional basis:
• Greater Manchester
• Cheshire and Warrington
• Lancashire
• Cumbria
• Merseyside
Applicants can apply for multiple sub-regional areas; however separate applications must be submitted for each area.
For further information and to request an application pack please contact: ola.dykes@communities.gsi.gov.uk
Final submissions/applications should be emailed to NW.ERDFEnquiries@communities.gsi.gov.uk by noon on 2 March 2012.
