UPDATE FROM RICHMOND COUNCIL: Further funding for local businesses announced.
A further £3.96m pot of cash is now available for local businesses who have been impacted by the pandemic – with grants of up to £10k to be paid out.
Eligible businesses can now apply for the Council’s discretionary ‘Additional Restrictions Grant’ to help them manage the impact of the pandemic.
The scheme is aimed at businesses who have not been eligible for or received a grant or relief under any of the other Council administered Covid19 financial support schemes, including the Small Business Grant, Extended Retail, Hospitality and Leisure Business Rates Relief or Local Restrictions Support Grant.
Grants will be awarded according to the level of fixed ongoing property costs:
- For properties with a rateable value of £15k or under, a one-off grant of £2,000
- For properties with a rateable value of over £15k and below £51k, a one-off grant of £5,000
- For properties with a rateable value of £51k or over, a one-off grant of £10,00
