Welcome to our latest COVID-19 update.
Additional Restrictions Grants Available to Claim Now
If your business has had to close due to coronavirus but is ineligible for the Local Restrictions Support Grant or other business rates-related support schemes, you may qualify for a one-off grant under the Additional Restrictions Grant scheme.
These grants are issued at the discretion of local councils who have the freedom to determine eligibility criteria and the level of grant awarded.
You may be eligible for a grant if your business:
- is legally required to close, but is not registered for business rates
- is not legally required to close, but has been severely impacted by the latest restrictions (including businesses registered for rates)
- supplies the retail, hospitality or leisure sectors
- is in the tourism or events sectors
How to claim
There is a limited budget available, and these grants will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. To register a claim, you must contact your local council before midday, 31st March 2021.
