grants and funding
Grants provide finance to allow your business to undertake a specific project that, without financial assistance, would not be able to proceed. Such projects might involve the initial start-up of the business, developing a new product or buying equipment.
A grant is usually a one-off payment and provides funding that covers a percentage of the project's costs - usually, you or your business will have to meet some of the costs, too. Unlike a loan, a grant does not usually have to be repaid unless your business fails to comply with the scheme's specific eligibility requirements and conditions. You will need to check that you meet the eligibility criteria for a particular grant and consider what will be required to satisfy the funders' requirements.
