## Summary

The Federation of Master Builders is facilitating a competitive grant scheme titled "Backing Local Firms: grants to reduce carbon in the built environment" on behalf of the Welsh Government. This initiative focuses on supporting local suppliers within the services sector, particularly in the construction and building engineering industries across five regions of Wales—South East, South West, Mid Wales, North East, and North West. Each region will award a grant of up to £29,000 to one successful applicant.
