If you are a budding entrepreneur aged between 18 – 30, funding is available through the Startup Loans Company.
The Start-Up Loans initiative was created by Lord Young of Graffham, the Enterprise Advisor to David Cameron. With over a million young people unemployed and difficult opportunities facing them as they look to their future, rarely do they consider enterprise as a viable career option. Calling upon the expertise of serial entrepreneur James Caan to chair the Start-Up Loans Company, the initiative has all the support and expertise it needs to help boost enterprise amongst 18-30 year olds across the country.
Start-Up Loans are not just about the money however. With young people having little track-record in borrowing money, there is a huge focus on the mentoring that comes alongside the loan.
