Additional Restrictions Grant funding available in Wakefield

Additional Government funding is to be made available to financially support businesses in the district who have been impacted as a result of the 5 November to 2 December national restrictions. This is of a discretionary nature and is called the Additional Restrictions Grant.

This scheme is designed to support individuals who are self-employed and/or registered for self-assessment, but have been unable to receive financial support under any other scheme. This includes the creative and cultural sector, and eligible businesses in the district are urged to apply – successful applicants will receive a single, one off payment of £1,000

Creative businesses and freelancers in Wakefield can now apply to the scheme via the application form.
