Unlock Sustainability Insights with a Free Carbon Survey – Apply by 31 October

Building on the success of North Somerset Council’s Green Business Grants programme, applications are now open (Wednesday 24 September) for eligible small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), sole traders, charities, and Community Interest Companies (CICs) to apply for a free carbon survey.

The programme is funded through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

Delivered in partnership with Future Leap, the surveys will help organisations understand their carbon footprint and identify practical steps to reduce energy use and cut costs.

Benefits of a carbon survey include:

• lower energy bills by tackling inefficiencies
• tailored recommendations to reduce emissions
• strengthened eligibility for future sustainability funding
• improved reputation with environmentally conscious customers and clients.

Please note that applications are for the survey only and will not include any grant funding.

Applications are open now and close on Friday 31 October 2025. See further information, guidance, and eligibility criteria here: Green Business Grants Programme – Round 3 | In North Somerset

Organisations that meet the eligibility criteria can register their interest by completing the following form: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/Wg7L0bwxcm.

Successful applicants will be contacted after the deadline to arrange their survey with Future Leap.
