Does the UK government provide financial help for opening a business?

The UK government offers some programmes for help with opening a small business, such as loans and grants for entrepreneurs. These funding options are provided at the national, regional and local tiers, and can provide the funding needed to help make your small business a success. If you know what you need to spend the money on and how much you need you may be ready to begin your search. There are loans and grants that you can use to advertise, buy machinery, hire employees, train employees, improve facilities or buildings, and more. If you do successfully start a small business, you may also be able to benefit from loans and grants in a later stage that can help you expand your company and more.
