Is it true recipients of small business government grants never need to payback the money received?

If you are eligible for and approved for UK government small business grants, it is true you do not need to payback the funding. The grants are given as a lump sum in most cases to small business owners or individuals who qualify and have their proposal selected as one or more one, and must be used for their intended purposes. If you need funds to improve your small business, advertise, get training or go back to school, hire employees, and more, there may be a grant out there you can use. Be sure to check the regional tier grants as well as national programmes, and look at the eligibility terms for the programmes you are interested in to see if you qualify.
