What the petition asks
The Welsh Government have promised Financial
Support for small businesses amid Lockdown number 3. The said funding/ financial support is still yet to be received and also nowhere near the level of support other parts of the country are receiving, We are receiving half of the amounts in England.
Support for small businesses amid Lockdown number 3. The said funding/ financial support is still yet to be received and also nowhere near the level of support other parts of the country are receiving, We are receiving half of the amounts in England.
The £6000 grant to cover 3 or more months of closure is not near enough, England are receiving monthly payments of £1300 plus grants of £4000, Why are Welsh like minded businesses being treated differently?
Wales will see empty High streets/towns if this continues. Small businesses may be very small, but pay massively into the economy, If you want to save your small businesses then please support us or you will see us destroyed. Act now, You have had the funding so help us before it’s too late!
