Owners may come forward individually, or as a group seeking to improve either a single premises or a number of adjacent premises. Expressions of interest will also be accepted from groups such as Tidy Towns, Chambers of Commerce for works such as murals, to improve the appearance of derelict buildings etc.
Commercial, residential and unoccupied buildings are all eligible for inclusion in the scheme.
Grant funding will be provided at the following rates:

- 80% for joint applications (groups of 3 or more adjacent premises)
