COVID-19 SUPPORT GRANTS

We are hearing from farmers that are now receiving their Local Restrictions Support Grant for businesses forced to close by the most recent lockdown.  These grants require applicants to be registered for business rates and the grant is available for each 14 day period the business has had to close.  This applies to tourism enterprises that had to close during the 2nd lockdown.

Businesses affected by the lockdown that do not pay business rates or who have not closed,  may be able to apply for the Additional Restrictions Grant.

For both grants, contact your Local Authority for details or contact Veronica on 01524 782797, e mail:  Veronica@thefarmernetwork.co.uk.
