The Humber Growth Hub has updated the Covid-19 Business Support document.

The closing date for completion of the Covid-19 Hull Business Impact Survey is 22 May.

The UK Furlough Scheme to pay wages of workers on leave because of Coronavirus will be extended to October, Chancellor Rishi Sunak said.

Here is a summary of the Prime Minister’s announcement and some immediate reactions, which we hope you find useful.

Businesses in Hull are being urged to seek support as they struggle to deal with the economic effects of the coronavirus pandemic.

Follow the link to the Government’s 50 page Covid-19 Recovery Strategy which has just been released. Hopefully this will offer more clarity, following the PM’s announcement yesterday.

Hull City Council is keen to understand the impacts and how we can support you through the current difficulties as well as when the lockdown ends and businesses are able to open up and return to normal.

A quick reminder that the application process for the Bounce-back Loan Scheme opened yesterday.

The new Bounce Back Loans scheme, announced by the Chancellor yesterday, will allow businesses to borrow between £2,000 and £50,000 and access the cash within days.
