These grants are to support local businesses during the 5 November to 2 December 2020 national lockdown and during periods of local restrictions.
Your business may be eligible for a grant if it:
- is in a local lockdown area and/or has been required to close
- occupies property on which it pays business rates;
- has been unable to provide its usual in-person customer service from its premises
What you will get
- For properties with a rateable value of £15,000 or under, grants of £934 per month
- For properties with a rateable value over £15,000 and below £51,000, grants of £1,400 per month
- For properties with a rateable value of exactly £51,000 and over, grants of £2,100 per month.
Grants will be based on the rateable value of the property on the first full day of local lockdown restrictions.
Additional funding is also being provided to allow Local Authorities (LAs) to support businesses which are not legally closed, but severely impacted by the restrictions. It will be up to Local Authorities to determine which businesses are eligible for such funding.
