Business grants in London
London's boroughs, the Greater London Authority and the London Growth Hub run help for small firms alongside national schemes: support to cut energy use, funding for high streets and town centres, and help for creative and fast-growing businesses. Borough schemes are often small and open for only a few weeks, so they're easy to miss.

Questions
What grants are available for small businesses in London?
There are three kinds: local grants from councils and growth hubs in London, schemes for the whole of England, and UK-wide grants. TendersNearMe lists all three in one place, with the closing date and amount for each.
Do I have to pay a grant back?
No. A grant doesn't have to be repaid, as long as you spend it on what you agreed and meet the conditions. Many grants pay only part of the cost, so you'll often need to put in some of your own money (match funding).
