I run a small business and would like to pay a consultant to help with planning during this crisis. Can I apply for financial support to do this?
The new Business Continuity Voucher has been launched to help sole traders with consultancy costs when planning strategies to respond to COVID-19.
This voucher is available through Local Enterprise Offices and is designed for businesses across every sector that employ up to 50 people.
The voucher is worth up to €2,500 in third party consultancy costs and can be used by companies and sole traders to develop short-term and long-term strategies to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
If for example you would like the assistance of a HR professional in dealing with staff or if you would like to work directly with an accountant to help you draft a proposal for bank funding this voucher could be very useful.
