How many government loan programmes and grants made available in Scotland are interest free?

Interest free loan and grants programmes from the government in Scotland are made available, but not every programme is interest free. Grants do not require repayment, and thus have no interest, but they do require each applicant to meet the eligibility conditions for the programme and write a proposal. There are loans that have no interest, some with low interest rates, and a few that act more like grants in that they do not require repayment. If you are looking for a loan or grant that you can use and do not find a suitable option in Scotland, expand your search to include national or regional level choices also.
