Small Loans for Business

The Small Loans for Business scheme is designed to help Northwest business owners, entrepreneurs, charities and social enterprises start up and expand their businesses.

It provides small loans of between £3,000 and £50,000 to new and growing businesses, charities and social enterprises. It was set up to encourage and make it easier for more people to start up and grow their own enterprises in the region.

The key features are:

  • Finance for your business, usually unsecured
  • Loan repayments to suit your needs including payment holidays
  • Validation of your business plan
  • Ongoing support to help you establish a track record

The scheme is funded by government, the NWDA and private sector partners, so is a credible and stable way to fund your organisation's growth.
