Owner operated businesses, no employees - £4,000

Businesses employing 2 - 10 staff - £7,000
-
Businesses employing 11 or more staff - £10,000
Eligible businesses
This funding is specifically for:
-
Businesses that supply goods or services to those who have been closed or restricted eg home-based B2B businesses (caterers; events/conference organisers, bands, DJs, photographers etc.) cleaning businesses; tradespeople; facilities management businesses, food/drink suppliers, AV companies;
-
Businesses facing hardship as an indirect consequence of the current travel restrictions (e.g. kennels and catteries; tour guides; removals);
-
Businesses who do not have business premises and are therefore ineligible for grants attached to the rates system.
