Hi Fiona,
I got the £10,000 grant which was linked to having small business rate relief on my premises. It doesn’t look too good for you does it? Did you put in any accounts last year? If not, I don’t believe you will be eligible for the 80% of earnings. It does seem very unfair that the help people are getting is so hit and miss. Taking card payments is great, I went overdrawn several times because I couldn’t get to the bank in time to pay money in, but a portable card machine is great, and of course more hygienic. I have tried to buy scrubs, which I don’t normally wear, but they are having problems getting them at the suppliers, so I will have to wait. I’m ok for all the other PPE though.
