A new multi-year fund with a budget of £360m is launching soon to support fishing and seafood businesses and coastal communities across the UK. The aim of the Fishing and Coastal Growth Fund (FCGF) is to modernise the fishing and seafood sector, build resilience, and support coastal regeneration.
The FCGF is still being developed and so for the first year it will keep to the priorities of the existing Fisheries and Seafood Scheme – workforce development, health and safety, community partnerships, trade and market access, and investment in infrastructure.
The scheme is expected to incorporate a broader range of priority areas from 2027/28.
Devon Funding News will provide further information once it is available.
