Eligible businesses in Lichfield and Burntwood are being reminded that support is still available to help them deal with the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Small and micro-businesses in the leisure, events, and hospitality sectors, and associated supply chains, are being encouraged to apply for funding via the Government’s Additional Restrictions Grant scheme.

Companies can be awarded a one-off payment of £11,471.44.

Cllr Iain Eadie, cabinet member for economic development at Lichfield District Council, said:

> “While it is fantastic to see venues and premises re-opening and footfall increasing we know there are a lot of businesses still struggling with financial pressures brought about as a result of Covid-19 trading restrictions.  
>  
> “We currently have grant funding available targeted at leisure, hospitality and events businesses and are really keen to hear from any that think they may be eligible and want to benefit.  
>  
> “We’ve already allocated over £80,000 but would like to see more businesses come forward.”  
>  
> Cllr Iain Eadie, Lichfield District Council

To be eligible businesses must not have received support from previous financial support packages administered by Lichfield District Council.
