Which available UK national small business grants are free?

National small business grants in the United Kingdom are usually free to apply for but the money they provide is not free – it is not handed out to anyone who applies. To apply for a grant you must find one that meets your needs that you qualify for, and compose a proposal detailing how you will use the money, as well as your long term small business plans. If your proposal is accepted and declared the winner you will receive the money and can use it within the terms of the grant, without having to pay it back. Find out more by filling out our web site’s email contact form or by calling us at UKStartups.org, 020 3880 8554.
