Business Support Grants – Overview
Chancellor's Business Support Grant Announcement - 21 December 2021
We are aware that additional financial support for the hospitality and leisure sectors was announced on 21 December 2021. We have not yet received these funds from Government, or guidance on how they should be distributed.
So far, we have been told that grants will be available to solvent businesses which are ratepayers in the hospitality and leisure sectors. Grants will be per premises and the amount paid will varied by rateable value of each eligible premises, in three bands:
- Businesses with a rateable value of £0-15,000 will receive £2,700
- Businesses with a rateable value of £15,000-51,000 will receive £4,000
- Businesses with a rateable value of over £51,000 will receive £6,000
We are working hard to ensure we can distribute funds to businesses as soon as possible but this will not happen before January 2022. Please continue to check this website and our social media feeds for the latest information.
