In response to this Disability Sport Wales have created a You Tube Channel where updates will be posted regularly with ideas on adaptive exercises and games that can take place at home.

The link to the channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC00NJ85E3UurrikAzqHpv5A

Coronavirus Grants for Vale of Glamorgan Businesses (20.03.2020)

St Athan Online Leave a comment

Below is a message from the Vale of Glamorgan Council :Coronavirus Business Grants

We are awaiting further clarification from Welsh Government as to how coronavirus financial support will be distributed to Vale of Glamorgan businesses. £1.4bn of funding has been made available to businesses in Wales.

We have been told today that non repayable grants for small businesses will be distributed by the Vale of Glamorgan Council. We have produced a flow chart which should indicate whether or not your business is eligible. Further information will be available next week.

We anticipate that businesses will need to provide a copy of their lease, business bank statement and a recent business utility bill in order to confirm that they occupy the premises. If you are a small business and you think you are eligible for support, please start to pull this information together now in order to prevent any delays. This may involve contacting your landlords to request the information. Our aim is to get this funding to businesses as soon as possible.

In this unprecedented economic crisis, the Vale of Glamorgan Council will be keeping businesses updated with the latest information on Coronavirus via the Council’s Coronavirus Business Support web page. This will be updated on a regular basis.

To register for further information which will be available next week, please enter your details here: https://forms.valeofglamorgan.gov.uk/en/CoronavirusBusinessGrantInterest
