BCP Council’s Stream 4 of the Additional Restrictions Grant has launched to provide the remaining funding from Government to businesses to help recover from the impacts of the pandemic. This is split into direct grants for businesses and wider business support measures:
Direct grants for businesses
- Language schools – a grant will be eligible for language schools that pay business rates and have been severely impacted by the pandemic. Rate paying language schools will be contacted to confirm they are eligible for this funding.
- Strategic businesses – a grant will be eligible for medium and large businesses (over 50 employees) that have been severely impacted by the pandemic and can demonstrate tangible outputs for recovery. Application forms can be requested by businesses by emailing argstream4@bcpcouncil.gov.uk with an application deadline of 19 November 2021.
Wider business support measures
This includes support for the Hospitality, Leisure, and Health and Beauty sectors, including projects to boost skills and employment.
