We fall into the <£12K rateable value so should be getting the £10K grant to support our little "business".

There are several service providers who don't fall into any category for significant help such as small time cleaner, window cleaner, gardener etc who have stood by us and are now seeing significant falls in income.

Yes some will be eligible for the small business support but some won't.

We're only talking £50/week for the cleaner, £10/month for windows, £50 a month for gardening so not huge amounts but it's their livlihood.

The problem is, we don't know how long this is going to go on for and continued payments might make them ineligible for benefits such as universal credit.

Is anyone else doing similar and have you found any issues such as these?
