Ask the government to extend SEISS to October, inline with the furlough Scheme.
I would like the government to extend the SEISS to October in line with the Furlough Scheme, to help provide some income for those that are self employed.
There are a great number of self employed who work in the Arts & Entertainment sector, Entertainers, Performers, Musicians, Actors, Stage crew, Dancers etc
Our industry along with performing venues will very likely be the last to be opened up.
People working within this industry will still be finding life financially difficult until it's up and running again.
Please extend the SEISS scheme in line with the Furlough scheme to provide a safety net for those that will still need one.
