The Home Business Support Grant is open to home-based businesses that were required to close during the most recent period of restrictions, those that supply to the retail, hospitality and leisure sectors, and who have experienced financial difficulties due to lockdown. Those eligible will receive a cash grant equivalent of £500 for the five month period between December 2020 and April 2021.
