James Attrill , Director at Christopher Scott and head of Agribusiness & Land Agency , has helped Isle of Wight Grain Storage Ltd secure a RDPE grant to help further expansion of their Cowes facility . The grant , in excess of £200,000 , will help fund a further 1600 tonnes of blending and out loading bins . There was stiff completion for the grant aid and a comprehensive application was needed to convince the award panel . James Attrill commented :

“ Isle of Wight Grain Storage is a critical facility for Island arable farmers – with 60 active members the co operative provides a superb outlet for arable crops exporting to many European countries . Many of our clients use this store and I am delighted to have been able to put together a successful application that will really build on the stores success . “

Since the Agribusiness and Land Agency Department was opened in 2007 many RDPE and LEADER grant applications have been submitted on behalf of clients with a 100% success rate .
