Kildare County Council invites applications for the Department of Business, Enterprise and Innovation’s Re-Start Fund – a fund to reconnect small and micro businesses with their employees and customers.

The grant is available to businesses with a turnover of less than €5m and employing 50 people or less, which have suffered a projected 25pc+ loss in revenue from the 1st April 2020 to the 30th June 2020.

The grant will be equivalent to the rates bill of the business in 2019, with a minimum payment of €2,000 and a maximum payment of €10,000. It is a contribution towards the cost of re-opening or keeping a business operational and re-connecting with employees and customers.

Eligible businesses who have stayed open throughout the crisis, as well as those who are reopening under Phase 1 (from 18 May) and Phase 2 (8 June) of the Government’s Roadmap for Reopening Society and Business, are encouraged to apply now for the Restart Grant.

Please note a separate application will be required for each rated property on your rate account.

The closing date for receipt of applications is the 31st August 2020.

Applications are being accepted on-line only, through the following consult.kildarecoco.ie.
