COVID-19: apply for Scotland’s Close Contact Service Fund by 11 March

by | Mar 9, 2022

Following a meeting with British Beauty Council and other industry groups, the Scottish Government has doubled the grant amount available via the Close Contact Services Fund and updated the eligibility to allow businesses with multiple premises to apply for each registered business entity.

Applications must however be received by 11 March. We therefore encourage all businesses in Scotland to apply, or reapply even if they have previously received funding.

 

Applications can be made here.
