Kickstart Scheme – BPIF will help apply on your behalf
On 1 September the Government released the long-awaited detail on the Kickstart Scheme. You can find all relevant information here, however we have tried to summarise everything you need to know in the guidance document below.
We will update this guidance to include FAQs as and when further clarifications have been made by the Department of Working Pensions (DWP).
Please scroll down to read the full guidance document and download the application form.
BPIF will be acting as a representative body to support our industry in accessing this grant. If you have fewer than 30 kickstart positions and your organisation is based in England, Wales or Scotland then the BPIF will apply on your behalf.
Just complete the application form which can be found by clicking the button below and submit to Ceri Priddle, Compliance Officer at [email protected] who will manage the application process.

Slight recovery of output and orders falls short of expectations in Q4 - confidence concerns mount in 2024
22 February 2024
Performance in the UK's printing and printed packaging industry did improve in Q4, as far as output and orders are concerned. However, it didn't come close to what would historically be considered the seasonal norm, nor quite match the subdued expectations for Q4.
The BPIF is the printing industries champion. By becoming a member you join a diverse and influential community. We help you solve business problems, connect you to new customers and suppliers and make your voice heard in government.
