Different job trades have different grants intended for them. However, there are more general small business grants that may be able to help people across different areas of industry or trades. There are small business funding options offered annually at the regional, local and national tiers. However, the amount and types of the programmes out there does change in accordance with the needs of society and the available funding for the purpose.
