Small grants of up to £500 are available to help businesses be more inclusive

Tourism and hospitality businesses, charities and social enterprises are being encouraged to apply for small grants of up to £500 to support them to become more accessible and inclusive to visitors. 

The Inclusive Tourism Vouchers scheme, developed by Belfast City Council, is the latest initiative to help the sector explore new markets.
