Keeping it current

What has changed recently

  • Invest in Cornwall is now Cornwall Trade and Investment.
  • The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Investment Fund has transitioned into the South West Investment Fund.
  • Many older EU funded Cornwall and Isles of Scilly programmes found online are legacy schemes rather than current funding routes.
  • The Cornwall Visitor Alliance is a new independent not for profit destination body, with membership expected to open in autumn 2026.

Are you one of these organisations?

If you support independent businesses in Cornwall, we would rather work with you than around you. Get in touch about listings, campaigns, town level rollouts and joint funding.
