What are free UK government small business loans?

All small business loans are free to apply for, but the programmes are not simply free money hand outs. The loan programmes normally require repayment, although a small number of programmes do not. They normally have low interest rates, or no interest, and a repayment schedule at which they are expected to be repaid. There are also eligibility conditions associated with each that must be met by all applicants who wish to get a loan. The eligibility conditions differ for each, but they are also different than the bank loan conditions, so even if you have been rejected when seeking a loan from the bank before, you may have a chance.
