Important changes to Business Rates

The Chelmsford Urban Business Grant Scheme now open for applications. If you are eligible, you can apply for up to £10,000. You can find out more details and apply online on the Invest Chelmsford website.

If you want to raise money on behalf of a charity in a public place, you will need the right permit. We do not charge for charitable collection permits.

Street collections includes collecting donations or selling goods on the street. House to house collections includes going house to house to collect donations, or collections of unwanted property such as clothes and toys.

Some charities have permission to raise money from the Home Office, so do not need a permit from us. You can contact us for more information.

You can also read our Street Collection Policy.
