Does anyone other than the national government provide free grants for small business use?

Other than the national government, you may apply to the regional and local the United Kingdom governments for free small business grants. Aside from the government entirely, you may find that private corporations also have grants available for small business use, although these tend to be rare and annual in nature, and thus far more difficult to obtain funding from. Grants from a national or other government source remain your best chance for receiving free funding for your small business. Complete our site’s contact form for more information.
