Black-owned restaurants across the UK can access financial support and mentoring to help with their recovery following the coronavirus pandemic.
Responding to the negative impact the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had on the UK’s restaurant trade, the Black Business Fund has been created to empower a recovery within the industry amongst black-owned businesses.
The scheme has a budget of £50,000. Ten black-owned restaurants will each receive £5,000 and access to mentoring from Enterprise Nation and Be Inclusive Hospitality to help boost their businesses.
The grant can be used for a range of activities, eg hiring more staff or increasing outreach to the local area.
Black-owned small restaurant businesses on Uber Eats with five sites or fewer in the UK are eligible to apply. Those that have been severely impacted by the pandemic are being targeted.
The deadline for applications is 12 January 2022.
How To Apply
Applications opened on 14 December 2021. The deadline for applications is 12 January 2022.
