Are women more likely than men to apply for and receive UK national government small business grants?

Gender discrimination is still thriving within the United Kingdom small business, and so there are fewer women applying for and receiving national government small business grants due to a lack of opportunity to undertake a start up and because of continuing bias with regards to how their small businesses are perceived. In aid of countering these institutionalized discriminations, national small business grants have been implemented specifically for the purpose of helping new or existing small businesses owned by women applicants.
