Urgent call to Barrow businesses yet to apply for coronavirus grant funding
An urgent call is being issued to eligible businesses across Barrow that have not yet applied for COVID-19 grant funding.
The closing deadline of May 31 now looms for the Local Restrictions Support Grant which has so far distributed more than £6m to more than 500 firms in the borough.
The scheme is for rate-paying businesses operating in the non-essential retail sector including personal care, as well as within hospitality and accommodation, leisure and sport and entertainment venues.
These businesses were forced to close during the national lockdown between February 16 and March 31 this year.
