Can London government grant funding be used for small businesses?

Not all of the grant funding offers from the government in London can be used for small businesses, as some of the funding is for non business uses such as for housing, community improvement, or education. There are also programmes for authors, inventors, and entrepreneurs which are somewhat business grants. However, they are not the same as those that are designed for general small businesses or those in certain industries. Look at the eligibility requirements and the intended uses of the offers that you find to see which ones may be most appropriate for the costs you are facing. For more information about grants in London, contact us at UKStartups.org by filling out the form on the website or by phone, 020 3880 8554.
