The Government will shortly be launching a Business Restart Grant, designed to support businesses in reopening safely once Covid-19 restrictions have been lifted.

Grants will be available from 1 April 2021 but you can submit applications in advance.

Eligible businesses in the hospitality, accommodation, leisure, personal care and gym sectors may be entitled to a one-off cash grant of up to £18,000 from their local council.

Eligibility

Your club/business may be eligible if it is:

• based in England
• rate-paying
• in the non-essential retail, hospitality, accommodation, leisure, personal care or gym sectors
• trading on 1 April 2021

Businesses excluded from the fund

You cannot get funding if your business:

• is in administration, insolvent or has been struck off the Companies House register
• has exceeded the permitted subsidy allowance
