Is the free government grant money for business use I’ve heard of real or a myth?

The idea of free government grant money is indeed a myth and misunderstanding because, despite government grant money not needing to be repaid, these programmes remain conditional and contingent. Funding grants for business use are not simply hand outs to anyone seeking financial assistance — there is a funding proposal and approval process involved that filters out inappropriate small business owners in order to make best use of any provided business financing. To acquire additional information about actual financial assistance instead of wasting time with non-existent free government grant money, ring UKStartups.org at 020 3880 8554.
