How we help you apply

Grant paperwork puts a lot of business owners off. We have been building websites in Knaresborough and Harrogate since 2002, so we know exactly what a funder wants to see in a website specification and quote.

1. Eligibility check

We review your business size, sector and project scope against the current grant criteria — it takes one short call.

2. Application support

We prepare the quote, specification and supporting detail the grant provider needs, then submit on your behalf.

3. Approval

Decisions are typically issued within 48 hours. Funding is confirmed in writing before any build work starts.

4. Build your website

We design and build the site from our Knaresborough studio, with the grant offset against your invoice.

Grant availability, values and criteria are set by the funding providers, not by Network Digital, and can change or close without notice. Figures on this page are read directly from the providers’ own pages each time they update. Always confirm current terms before committing to a project. See our website pricing for what a typical build costs before funding.
