Give business with prolonged closure due to Covid-19 additional grant funding

Closed 694 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to Covid-19 many small to medium businesses closed their doors to ensure the spread of infection was limited. In doing so we were allowed to claim grants of £10,000 & £25,000. This helped with a focus of 12 weeks closure. Many businesses forced to remain closed will be forced to shut down.
To avoid all these small to medium size businesses closing down and losing thousands of jobs. We need another life line of the grants which were given out. We see many business being allowed to trade again while we slowly watch our businesses perish away. Many of us offer community support and transform peoples lives both mentally and physically. Boxing & Martial Arts centres, for example, offer so much to the wider community and to lose these businesses would be devastating.
