Applications for the first grant opened on 13 May 2020. Applications for the first grant will close on 13 July 2020.
Second and Final Grant
Eligible individuals can claim a taxable grant worth 70 per cent of their average monthly trading profits, paid out in a single instalment covering three months’ worth of profit, and capped at £6,570 in total.
