Eligible businesses can apply for a grant of up to £500 to support works that improve the external frontage of their premises.

Our Shop Front Grants are designed to improve the appearance of individual business premises while also enhancing Kendal Town Centre by creating a welcoming and vibrant environment for visitors and the local community.

We encourage local businesses to take advantage of this opportunity to invest in their premises and help uplift the broader look and feel of our high streets.

This funding can be used for a variety of improvements, such as:

  • Painting and decorating the exterior to freshen up its appearance
  • Repairs to woodwork, such as doors, windows, and fascia boards
  • Installation or refurbishment of signage that enhances the shop’s visibility and character
  • General maintenance that contributes to a tidy, professional, and appealing shop front

A small change can make a big difference in attracting customers and improving the local trading environment.
