Following the National Lockdown announced yesterday by the PM, the Chancellor announced new one-off top up business support grants for the retail, hospitality and leisure sectors worth up to £9,000. Additionally discretionary funds are also available for other businesses impacted by the lockdown.
More details on the Job Retention Bonus (JRB) have been released from the government. The JRB promises businesses a one off £1,000 payment for every previously furloughed employee if they were still employed at the end of Jan 2021.
