This is part of the UK Shared Prosperity fund so I'd expect to see quite a lot of these types of grants popping up elsewhere, in some areas, like Bristol City, the grant distribution has been delegated to the local BID to determine who gets it.
It seems like sole traders (self employed) people would be included in this funding, they definitely are in the BCP funding.
Also as an aside Larry vs Harry have gone back to distributing directly to UK stockists, which has (in theory) brought the price down on new Bullitt bikes.

That's great to hear, I'm hoping to get an X early next year.
based on what it was like to bring in Omnium when it was direct import, it will probably be slower but yeah since Covid/Brexit/energy prices/increased storage costs having a UK distributor for cargo bike brands just doesn't seem cost effective without adding cost to the final RRP
Not relevant to everyone on here but in our neck of the woods (Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole), our council has just released a 50% match funding business decarbonisation grant which can be used to purchase a cargo bike.
