Grants for home based businesses to help them survive the Covid-19 Pandemic
Rejected

What the petition asks
I would like the government to help make grants available for home based businesses. Thousands of home based businesses who are renting privately or living in council flats are at risk of losing their livelihoods. We need the financial support to help us save our businesses.
The government should help home based businesses as they also contribute to the economy of the country and also employ people who are all at a risk of losing their income and getting into debt. Now more than ever home based businesses need to be acknowledged. The financial strain is much higher to ignore.
