More information on the eligibility criteria and grant amounts is provided on the application form, which is available now at www.lambeth.gov.uk/covid19businesses
Please be aware that this application does not relate to Tier 4 restrictions and grants. The council is awaiting guidance from Government on Tier 4 support, but it is anticipated that a separate application form may be required for this. More information on Tier 4 support will be provided on the webpage linked to above and businesses are encouraged to sign-up for email updates to receive direct notifications.
Lambeth Council has paid out in excess of £2million to businesses that were forced to close during the National Lockdown period (05 November – 02 December). Whilst 71% of businesses we expect to be eligible have received support, there are still some businesses who have not applied. Applications for these grants remain open for businesses who were forced to close by the Government, with grants of either £1,334, £2,000 or £3,000 available, depending on the rateable value of premises. The application form for these grants is available at www.lambeth.gov.uk.covid19businesses.
