The Regional Growth Fund (RGF) was introduced by the UK Government in 2010 and operated through six competitive funding rounds until 2015. Since then the Government has made occasional awards for high value, game changing projects through exceptional Regional Growth Fund awards (eRGF).
We have worked with over 40 companies to help them access over £220m in RGF and eRGF grants, either by advising them on the application or being a due diligence provider. We can also help by providing grant assurance reports to accompany claims.
Our clients have included Nissan, Siemens, PD Ports, Stobart Group and Wellstream.
“We selected UNW as a third-party diligence organisation to support our eRGF grant application to HM Government. They completed the diligence requirements quickly and efficiently, and provided a succinct report to support the application which was successful. Post award UNW provided project monitoring services, compiling financials and narrative to support quarterly applications and twice-yearly audits and reports in the subsequent monitoring period. Their staff have always been efficient, responsive and well versed in the Government’s requirements, making sure that the administration of the grant was not a distraction to our core business.”
