UKSPF and REPF Grant Scheme – How to Apply
Projects in 2023/24
Cumberland Council will support selected projects that deliver on the council’s UKSPF and REPF investment priorities.
A call inviting project applications is now open, with final decisions on projects to be supported made at the end of January 2024 by the council’s UKSPF Investment Panel. The High Street grant scheme does not have a closing date, this will end when all funds have been allocated.
Grant programmes are among the projects to be funded by the council.
The deadline to submit applications for grants schemes is listed within the guidance each grant information.
Grants for improvements to commercial properties within town and city centres across Cumberland are being managed by Cumberland Council. More information on the fund, guidance notes and how to submit applications can be found on the next page of this guide on our building grants page.
