How can the United Kingdom government afford to provide small business grant money?

An entrepreneur in the United Kingdom may obtain grant money or a low-interest loan from the private sector or, almost certainly preferably, from the government. The local, regional, and United Kingdom national governments all offer free money in the form of grant programmes, but not every small businesses will be considered eligible for all funding programmes. Likewise, not every grant money will be available to all the United Kingdom entrepreneurs, as a grant applicant may reside or operate a small business in an area that is not eligible for some local or regional based grant programmes. There are resources available to offer assistance with researching the various government funds, saving you time and improving your chance of successfully applying.
