Coronavirus – what support is available to keep me in business?

24 Mar 2020

With what appears to be daily bulletins, briefings, Government announcements and rumour and counter rumour it is hard to know where to start and what is available.  Not only that, but many business owners are questioning what support is available to them and how they can get access to this support.

Given the continuous changes and the Prime Ministers latest lock-down announcement, our team set out to compile all this information together and how you can access it as of the morning of 23rd March 2020.

The best place to look things up?

The GOV.UK website is a good place to start and this webpage is the central point of reference directly from the Government themselves. It is best to start here so that you can ensure you read accurate information.

There are are other pages from here which are being updated on a regular basis so be sure to keep checking them. They also offer an update history so that you can see what information has changed. These other pages offer advice on:

• Guidance for Employers and Businesses
• Support for Businesses
• Guidance for Employees
  

We have compiled this document for information on Sick Pay, Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, Business Rate Support, Support for Business paying Tax, Mortgage holidays and more.
