How can I get government loans and grants in Belfast?

There are government loans and grants available in Belfast, both from the regional and local ranks and the national government. The money is set aside from the respective government budgets annually to be used for such purposes, and each loan and grant is offered for a specific use and for a specific amount of money. This is why it is important to consider how much funding you require and what you will need to use the funds for before you consider applying for loans and grants. Each also has its own prerequisite conditions that must be taken into account. If you do not find what you need at the regional rank you should look at the national offers. However, it is a wise thing to try to get a regional loan or grant, as there is less competition for them. Learn more by filling out the form on our website.
