We are really pleased to share that Childs Brand Partners has received part-funding by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, administered by North Yorkshire Council for a new large format UV printer.
The funding forms part of a new project roll out that will enable us to broaden our service offering for clients on product and packaging prototypes and marketing communication materials.
“The new Roland printer raises the bar in terms of what we can achieve for our clients, offering superior quality direct-to-object or substrate printing. This is a game changer in terms of print application for our business and we are extremely grateful for the support by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and North Yorkshire Council.”

Shared Prosperity in North Yorkshire will enable the people, communities, and businesses across our rural, coastal and urban areas to harness opportunities to thrive. North Yorkshire has been allocated £16.9 million to spend on programmes and projects through UK Shared Prosperity Fund as well as £5.4million from Rural England Prosperity Fund – a capital programme targeted at rural areas, but technically with many of the same objectives as UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
The delivery of UK Shared Prosperity Fund in North Yorkshire will be guided by our core principles that are embedded across all activities:
- Community wealth building
- Net Zero and Circular Economy
- Health and wellbeing
- Inclusive Economy
- Good Work
The UK Shared Prosperity Fund and the Rural England Prosperity Fund support the government’s wider commitment to level up all parts of the UK by delivering on each of the levelling up objectives:
- Boosting productivity, pay, jobs and living standards by growing the private sector especially in those places where they are lagging behind
- Spreading opportunities and improving public services, especially in those places where they are weakest
- Restoring a sense of community, local pride and belonging, especially in those places where they have been lost
- Empowering local leaders and communities, especially in those places lacking local agency
