Are all North West regional government grant programmes intended to help the community?

Even if a North West government grant is intended for non commercial purposes within the community, it is sometimes possible for a small business to be eligible for the grant and apply. For example, if a North West community needs a park landscaped, a small business could possibly apply for any grant earmarked for the project as a way to fund their involvement. Not every community grant programmes in North West or elsewhere will allow for this sort of crossover, however. So, consider the terms of eligibility before applying. UKStartups.org has an online contact form you can submit or phone number you can call, 020 3880 8554, for more information about a grant that may be available in a community within the North West region.
