Grants to help business and self-employed deal with the Covid pandemic.

The Manx government says the help is for those unable to work from home, in catering, entertainment, hospitality, leisure, lifestyle and retail if companies have seen more than a 25 per cent reduction in turnover.

The grants cover up to one year's rates or £1,000 through the Business Premises Support Scheme and the Coronavirus Business Support Scheme.

Applications will close on 17 September - you can find out more at iomdfenterprise.im
