The revised fund will take into account the findings of the independent evaluation carried out in 2011 which can be found under Related Links.

One of the main changes in the refocused scheme is the emphasis on better developed applications.  In order to achieve this each applicant may spend (and be reimbursed) up to £500 in business advice sought while preparing their application. This will be reimbursed even where the application is unsuccessful.  

To receive an application you can either email podf@wales.gsi.gov.uk or download an application form below. Alternatively you can telephone: 0300 062 8273 / 8612 / 8307 to request an application form.

Applications must be submitted by 30 April 2013.
