What sort of grant ,financial help,the Uk government offers to young people who want to start their own business?|||you don't say what age you are or whether you are in work or not


You'll get more help if you're unemployed and in receipt of JSA


However you can contact your local Business Gateway and they will tell you what grants are available locally and from who


Both my son and my husband got start up grants, bit both had been unemployed previously|||Unfortunately the answer is very little. You mention a young person and therefore I would highly recommend that you get in touch with " The Princes Trust" who do a really good job helping young people to start businesses.


There may be some better news on Gov grants if you are in a development area or one supported by schemes to help mining communities etc as the previous answer said your local Business Link can give you all this type of information.


good Luck
