New app to help Northumberland's hospitality businesses
The full funded, bespoke app would be compatible with Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

Delivered through the Northumberland Covid Business Response Programme (NCBRP) by BoxModel, eligible businesses will receive an app that is completely customisable to fit with the businesses brand and can be easily updated by the user to keep the menu up to date.
NCBRP is a new service for businesses that have been adversely affected by Covid-19.
The Project is funded by the North of Tyne Combined Authority and delivered by Advance Northumberland on behalf of Northumberland County Council and the Northumberland Business Hub.
