If I cannot get free money from the British government, can I go to banks?

British banks do not offer small businesses money for free from financial programmes, such as grants, for free under any circumstances because they are themselves small businesses and there is no profit in giving away money for free. Instead, banks provide financial aid to small businesses in the form of loans, which certainly cannot be interpreted as free money because any such funding assistance will have to be repaid by the applicant.
