Please see our Regional Grant Availability Table for details of which grants are currently available for this and the forthcoming financial year.
Woodland Regeneration Grant (WRG)
We are now open for WRG applications with claim years 2010/11 and 2011/12, and as usual we will commit regional funds on a first come first served basis. There have been no changes to the rules or payment rates for this grant.
Customer and Land Registration
Last autumn we alerted the sector to this forthcoming new requirement and published full details on our website of how to apply and certain transitional arrangements. From now on EWGS applicants must be registered with a Single Business Identifier (SBI) and their land registered on the Rural Land Register (RLR) before applying. Any applications where the customer or land has not been registered or the SBI/RLR details provided will be returned. For further details on customer and land registration, please refer to EWGS 1 – General Guide to EWGS, or Operations Note 19.
