We know that businesses in Devon are facing many different struggles, from rising costs to recruitment and retention. With the current financial climate following so quickly on the heels of the pandemic, some businesses are facing very difficult decisions.
The Devon Recovery Projects are funded through Devon County Council’s Economy Service £6 million Recovery Programme which aims to support four key areas: small and medium enterprises, employment and skills, the green recovery, and the hardest hit towns and communities.
