Onwards Norfolk
We’re proud to bring Levy Payers 5 new projects under the banner Onwards Norfolk, in collaboration with Norwich and Great Yarmouth BIDs and funded by the Government’s Community Renewal Fund.
Onwards Norfolk is about responding to the needs and challenges of small businesses in our BID area, brought on by COVID. The projects are designed to be flexible, responsive and tailored to your needs.
There are 5 core projects: Digital & Media Skills Training, Zero Waste Champions, Hospitality & Leisure Training, Business Support Hub, and Pop Ups. For more information, see the Onwards Norfolk website.
