COVID 19 BUSINESS SUPPORT – INFORMATION FOR BUSINESS
Information Updated 23 February 2021
On the 22nd February the Prime Minister announced his roadmap recovery plan from the Covid pandemic. The 4 steps and target dates can be viewed here with non-essential retail the first major sector to be re-opened on the 12th April, subject to infection rates remaining under control.
Warrington Borough Council paid out nearly £17m in business support grants between the start of November 2020 and the end of February 2021. Payments will continue automatically for those business who successfully applied for the Local Restrictions Support Grant or Additional Restrictions Grant, until they are permitted to operate once more.
If you did not apply in November and feel you may be eligible for support, please visit the Council’s website for instructions on how to proceed https://www.warrington.gov.uk/business-support-coronavirus-update. In order to be eligible, you must currently be prohibited from opening by the national government restrictions. Alternatively, you may be suffering a significant loss in revenue because your main customers are prevented from trading.
You can also contact us for information on additional sources of business support.
Further central Government support is available. Information on any additional support schemes will appear on the website here: https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus/business-support
The Cheshire & Warrington Business Growth Hub continues to provide support for local business whether for advice and assistance during the pandemic, or general business start-up and growth schemes. More details on the website: http://candwgrowthhub.co.uk
Warrington & Co continue to work with the Council and partners to promote and introduce Covid 19 compliant safety measures across the borough. This will establish much needed confidence in our town and businesses whether visiting shops, making quality products or delivering world class services. https://www.warrington.gov.uk/coronavirus-covid-19-warrington
