Some grants are linked to specific geographical areas and those in need of economic regeneration. Business grants are intended to aid you succeed in a specific project; and are not offered for use as working capital. By the same token, you can not use them to offset purchases already made, and paid bills for services rendered in the past, prior to the project being approved.
