How do I learn to get business grants in South West?

To get South West business grants, or to have a chance at them, you need to know how to write a proposal. The proposal is an important part of the application process, and allows business owners to represent themselves in a way that shows the grant committee the reasons why they need the money and how they may be helped by the grant. First you will need to decide which grant to apply for, since each of them has slightly different application procedures, as well as eligibility requirements. For help selecting or applying for a government grant, fill out the form on our website or give us a call at UKStartups.org, 020 3880 8554.
