The Enhanced Flood Support Scheme to provide financial support to businesses affected by flooding in late October and early November 2023.
The Department for the Economy has launched the Enhanced Flood Support Scheme that will provide further support to businesses that were directly flooded following severe weather in late October and early November 2023. The support is in addition to the £7,500 grants and rates relief that has been provided to date to affected businesses.
How to apply
The scheme will be delivered by district councils and will open for applications at the end of February 2024.
Full details about the Enhanced Flood Support Scheme, including eligibility criteria and how to apply will be released early next week.
Additional hardship schemes
Two hardship schemes have also been announced to provide support for businesses and some other non-domestic premises that were impacted by the flooding but were not eligible for the previous £7,500 payment or the Enhanced Flood Support Scheme.
These additional hardship schemes are expected to open by the middle of March 2024.
