Does the British government provide grants and other forms of small business funding?

The British government provides grants and other forms of funding to a wide spectrum of beneficiaries, ranging from small to large small businesses, the arts, local community resources, such as parks and recreation centres, tourism, trade, and so on. How these grants, loans, and other funding programmes fit into the United Kingdom budget will vary from year to year, so the funding available to each sector is not immutable, nor is it equal as priorities change. Funding small business is invariably a priority, however, as it is the foundation of the economy that provides the taxes that account for these funding programmes to begin with.
