Business rates grant scheme to be extended to Children Nursery settings,
We want the government to extend the business rates grant scheme to to Children Nursery settings
We want the Government to do it, as children’s nursery settings are vital to the economy, and require government help in order to be able to maintain their businesses afloat. Without this vital help many nurseries will close as will not have any income to help them cover over headings through this pandemic. They provide a vital function, taking care of key workers children, while they are in the front line combating COVID-19. Without nurseries NHS Police and other primary services would collapse
