Are North East government grants or loans the best financing option for a small business?

The benefits of North East government small business grants versus government loans varies, depending upon the particular circumstances of the small business and what the money is intended to be used for. Loans tend to be more accessible. However, you will need to pay them back, whereas grants are more focused within their scope, and may be more difficult for your North East small business to attain. However, their funding does not need to be repaid to the government. As an entrepreneur, benefit from the UKStartups.org’s resources regarding grants for small business use in the North East.
