Sources of start-up funding for small business run by ASD person

Hi,

Does anyone have advice on sources of start-up funding to set up a small business? I'm wondering if these is any funding available specifically for autistic/disabled entrepreneurs.

Thanks, but unfortunately I'm 20 years too late for their funding ;)

I'm not on benefits. I'm really looking to see if there are any alternatives to bank loans for start-up businesses, or using my own savings to get things going.
