What is a United Kingdom government grant?

A United Kingdom government grant is what is created when a politician or legislative entity decides that a service or function needs funding and, therefore, allocates government money for that purpose. Funds from a government grant are then made available for an application and awarded to those who are approved, often with specific conditions. Many grant programmes are only available for a limited time, either designed with a time limit in mind or running until the allocated funds are depleted. If you would like to read more about the national grant process, please come and take a close look at our site, otherwise you can ring us up at 020 3880 8554. Alternatively, potential applicants can opt to complete and submit the information request form to us.
