​Find Coronavirus support for your business

A new ‘support finder’ Business Support Checker Tool is especially worth noting and is available to help businesses and self-employed people across the UK to quickly and easily determine what financial support is available to them during the coronavirus pandemic.

The new online platform on gov.uk requires business owners and the self-employed to complete a quick and simple online questionnaire. They will then be directed to a list of all the financial support they may be eligible for.
