A new website is available to help people, businesses, and organisations in West Lindsey search for grants, low-cost loans, and awards, reports eGov monitor. By visiting www.west-lindsey.gov.uk and clicking on the ‘West Lindsey 4’ logos, users can access information about what grants are available, to whom, how much is available, and how you access the money.

The site, offered by West Lindsey District Council’s Economic Development Services, provides information on what is available to fund projects, ranging from new business development to charitable projects. It features a straightforward menu system with easy-to-follow onscreen instructions and is regularly updated when new sources of funding become available.

Putting all the available information on one website should make searching for funding opportunities much easier and more convenient. The service, provided by j4b, has been available for several years now. West Lindsey’s implementation of it shows how it is not just county councils, but the smaller district and borough councils that can make use of new media technology to provide services at a highly localised level.
