The Government has provided Croydon Council with £61m to distribute to local bsinesses in the form of business grant funding.
Around 4,500 businesses in the borough are eligible to receive grants of either £10,000 or £25,000 under the government scheme. The aim is to support local businesses in response to the significant financial impact of Covid-19.
Receiving a government business grant is a free and automatic service. There is no lengthy application process and businesses have been asked to fill in and return a simple online form to verify details such as the name of the rate payer, their business address, VAT registration details and Companies House registration number. Also there is no need for businesses to employ any agency or broker.
