The party is offering to create regional mutual banks to drive investment in decarbonisation and give VAT and rates exemptions.
The Green Party has committed to helping the UK’s high streets thrive in a green economy by setting out a charter for small businesses.
Ellie Chowns, the party’s candidate for North Herefordshire, said the charter will support business to “survive and prosper”, adding they are the “lifeblood of our economy and our communities”. “Local authorities would be funded nationally to channel grants worth £2 billion per year to local businesses which want to decarbonise faster.
She added: “Some small local businesses struggle to get their payments on time which can leave them financially exposed and unable to thrive on our high streets.
