Usually not. Grants are normally non-repayable, as long as you spend the money on what you agreed and meet the conditions. Always check the specific terms.
Yes. The site is completely free to use. It is funded by advertising and sponsor placements, which never affect which schemes we list.
No. UK Grants Finder is an independent project published by Risevance. We gather publicly available funding information and link to each funder's official page; we are not affiliated with any government department.
No — we are an information tool only. You apply directly to the funder, using the official link we provide for each scheme.
We review listings regularly, but funding programmes open, close and change terms frequently. Always check the funder's own page (which we link) for the latest details before applying.
Some grants require you to put in your own money alongside the grant — for example, the grant covers half a project's cost and you fund the rest. That is called match funding.
