If you have applied for a grant covering the National Lockdown period, there is no need to apply again. We are in the process of updating our fraud checks and if you are eligible for the second payment from the 16 February onwards, it will be paid automatically. If your grant has been approved already, you should receive a payment covering the period from 16 February next week (week commencing 8 March). If your grant has not yet been approved, please be patient; we are working through them as quickly as possible and you will be paid the full amount that you are entitled to as soon as possible. The Government have now set a deadline for grant applications: You need to have completed both application forms by 31 Mar in order to be considered for the grants covering the period 2 Nov 2020 to 16 Feb 2021.

We have received additional funding from the Government for the Additional Restrictions Grant Scheme. This means we can now offer the grant to more businesses which were impacted during the November lockdown. We are reassessing all the claims and will directly contact affected businesses who may now qualify.
