Mike Hedges welcomes announcement that almost £2.5 million approved to help Welsh businesses cope with Brexit challenges.

Speaking from his Swansea East Office, Mike Hedges AM said… ‘It is clear that business are going to need a lot of support as we transition towards Brexit. I am pleased the Welsh Labour Government is providing as much support as it can. The Brexit Business Resilience Programme is proving to be a vital source of support for the Business Community in Wales.

If people are looking for support for their business as we approach the date of leaving the EU ( October 31^st) please contact Business Wales via the link below.’

Almost £2.5 million has been approved to help Welsh businesses adjust to the challenges of Brexit since the Welsh Government’s Brexit Business Resilience Programme was launched last year, Economy Minister Ken Skates has announced.

A total of 51 eligible businesses have been approved for funding of between £10,000 and £100,000 as part of the Brexit Business Resilience Grant Fund, so they can invest in overcoming immediate challenges related to Brexit.

The Brexit Business Resilience Grant Fund is currently fully committed, but work is under way to make more funding available.
