As a consultant, I possessed a comprehensive understanding of SME funding and finance. However. funding options can be a minefield of ridicules rates or unprofessional services, and your bank is just as unhelpful. Chat to me about your need. I cannot offer direct advice because of FCA regulations (see below) but I may be able to suggest a 'managed introduction' to an individual or organisation that can chat through some options with you.
