Does the United Kingdom offer grants that can pay for a new business?

The United Kingdom does have grants that can pay for parts of the start up associated with a new business, but it is not likely that you could fund an entire start up company on one grant. There are grants for things like advertising costs, training and hiring employees, paying for building renovations, and the like. You must check out your budget first to see what you most urgently require funding for, and devote your grant efforts to covering those costs. Phone us at (toll free) 020 3880 8554 to confer with a United Kingdom Business Funding Centre adviser about your new business grant options. Our site’s contact form is also available for your convenience.
