Is there a database of UK government grants?

There is not a single government grants database because government grants programmes are not provided by a single government agency. The existing grants are invariably changing and the deadlines vary from programme to programme, so it would be ineffective to try to store all of the listings in a database. If you are interested in receiving a grant it is best to search for the ones that are out there at the time you want to start applying for them. Each has a different intended use and different eligible conditions, so be aware of this when deciding which grants you would like to write proposals to. Fill out our web site’s email contact form to learn more or ring us up at UKStartups.org, 020 3880 8554, to get to know more about available grants.
