Dear All,

I'm currently unemployed and wish to start a new business. I've completed my business plan and now need a loan of about 9K. I don't want a secured loan on my house. But have a bad credit rating. Where can I go please?

Thanks :confused:

    hi, if you are under 30 scottish enterprise is giving everyone £1000 to set up in business...i'd see if this is available across the UK, i'd assume so. Also, i got £5k from Princes Scottish Youth Business Trust....

    go and see business enterprise, don't listen too carefully to them (why don't they run their own businesses if their advice is that good?? lol!) and see if you have a local business angels (matches wealthy entrepreneurs who want to invest to skint ones!) and other business networking things...

    good luck!
