What is the difference between a national government grant and a Cardiff government grant?

A Cardiff government grant is a grant provided at the regional rank of government and a national grant is offered by the national government. Cardiff grant programmes are only for applicants living and working within the United Kingdom, whereas national government grants are open to the entire nation. For each type of grant you must determine if you are eligible and write a proposal for the programme you are interested in.
