Are bank loans the only type for West Midlands business?

Bank loans are one option but they are not the only type of funding for business that is available in West Midlands. There are government loan offers available at the regional level which may be of use to people there, and also have different eligibility requirements than the bank loans. So, even if you have been rejected when seeking a loan from the bank in the past you may have a chance. There are also offers available from the federal government if you do not find something that you can use in your area. To learn more about loans from the government you can fill out the form on our website or give us a call at UKStartups.org, 020 3880 8554.
