Am I eligible for support?

If you are a micro, small or medium sized business based in the rural areas of Northumberland, Newcastle and North Tyneside then you may be able to access our support. You must register with us so we can assess your eligibility.

Please check your location to determine if you are based in an eligible rural area. You need to do this by using MagicMaps. Please enter the postcode of your project address. This may be your registered address or the premises you operate from or if you are looking at moving, where you intend on being located. 

The video below will help you to use MagicMaps.
