The Local Restrictions Support Grant (Closed) Addendum: 5 January onwards is now open for applications to claim the second payment cycle.
The second payment cycle is for a further 44 days for the period from 16 February to 31 March 2021.
Micro businesses (who make up 74% of eligible businesses in Exeter), that successfully received a first payment from this scheme, will shortly receive an access code by email that will enable them to complete a shortened form. This process enables payments to be made more quickly.
Unfortunately eligible small, medium and large businesses will need to complete a full application form. This is due to the new subsidy allowances and the need to have collated evidence before payment is made where the Covid-19 Business Grant Special Allowance applies to the business.
Further information on the new subsidy allowances can be found from page 16 in the Government’s guidance for local authorities
