Accessing business grants for new start-ups
Hundreds of grant schemes and millions of pounds available
It’s easy to find out if you qualify, so don’t delay in contacting us.
Here’s the good news
Regardless of the size of your business there is a range of grants designed specifically to assist new or recently formed businesses.
There are currently hundreds of schemes and millions of pounds in grant aid in the form of cash free grants and soft loans available to new business start-ups and recently formed businesses.
The start up phase of any business is critically important. Grants and assistance can fundamentally change your business outlook.
Our advice to new business start-ups whether recently started, about to start or still in the planning stage is to contact us now to ensure you optimise your claim to available funds.
The UK Government has stated that it “believes in enterprise and opportunity and wants to create the right conditions for businesses to thrive and prosper, making the UK the best place in the world to start and expand a business”.
The grants system is a key area for delivering on this vision but the process is still bureaucratic and cumbersome which often explains why many businesses fail to capitalise on the funds available to them.
Don’t miss out. Take advantage of our free assessment service and find out what is available to your business, contact us here.
Here’s what we do
We source the prospective schemes and funds that are appropriate to your business operation.
We advise on the qualifying criteria, assist in the preparation and presentation of the grant application and follow through on all issues until completion.
