What ways are there to fund your business in the United Kingdom?

There are different ways to fund your United Kingdom business, some of them which are commonly overlooked. Do not limit yourself to private investor funding or bank loans, since there are government grants and loans that you should also be sure to look at and take into account. There is no guarantee you will get money when you apply for one of these offers. However, it is worth taking the chance, as grants do not need repayment and loans are generally more favourable to the recipient than loans from then bank. Look at your budget and business plan before seeking government funding. This is so that you will know what you need to spend the money on.
