You'll have heard by now that the Rural England Prosperity Fund (REPF) grant scheme is open, but do you know what can be funded?
Funding must be used on capital projects. This means grant funds must be spent on lasting assets, such as equipment, constructing a new building, replacing windows, purchasing solar panels or electric vehicles, investing in new energy saving measures or developing a new website.
