Hospitality Grants in Kent

Kent's hospitality sector has faced significant challenges in recent years, from Brexit-related labour shortages to the ongoing recovery from pandemic impacts, making targeted funding support crucial for businesses across the county's diverse tourism landscape from Canterbury's historic attractions to the coastal resorts of Thanet. The South East Local Enterprise Partnership has historically prioritised tourism and hospitality as key growth sectors, recognising Kent's position as the "Garden of England" and gateway to Europe, while local authorities frequently develop grant programmes focused on enhancing visitor experiences and supporting seasonal businesses.
