CORONAVIRUS GRANTS & HELPLINE NOW AVAILABLE

The Small Business Grant Funding (SBGF) and the Retail Hospitality & Leisure Grant (RHLG) are now both open online to receive applications.

To claim the grant, you will need to fill in an online form. The grant will then be paid directly to you within the next 7-10 working days.

Before you begin your claim, you will need the following ready:

·      Business rates account number
·      Address of property
·      Bank a/c
·      Sort Code
·      Bank account name
·      VAT registration number


ESSENTIAL

To complete the form, you will need your unique business rates reference number (found on any business rates bill).

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS IT WILL SUBSTANTIALLY SLOW DOWN THE PAYMENT OF YOUR GRANT.

If you do not know your business rates number, call the Business Rates Team on 020 8315 2255 between 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.

If you are a Station to Station levy payer, we should also have this information so please email: Bronwen@stationtostation.london

Station to Station Business Improvement District with Lambeth Council are lobbying government on your behalf to ensure that all businesses are able to access support during the Coronavirus Pandemic.

 

BUSINESS HELPLINE SERVICE

Lambeth now have a dedicated Coronavirus Business Helpline accessible through a dedicated phone line and email address for you to contact if you have any questions.

It is open Monday-Friday 9am-5pm

Email: enterprise@lambeth.gov.uk

Call: 020 7926 2344

The team are answering any queries that businesses may have relating to both government initiatives such as grants and business rate relief, and Lambeth initiatives such as rent relief for tenants.

The helpline will be busy so if you are seeking to claim a grant, the best option is to go straight to here and begin your claim.
