Dear Member / Friend,
TO RECAP
SMALL BUSINESS GRANT
The COVID-19 NSW Small Business Grant closes this Sunday 31 May 2020. If you wish to apply and haven’t yet, here is the link to submit your application: https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/apply-small-business-covid-19-support-grant
You will, amongst other things, need to show evidence of a decline in turnover of 75% compared to the equivalent period of at least 2 weeks in 2019. It is a big drop which has happened to many businesses.
From Monday 1 June 2020, we must all continue to:
Travel and Museums etc
Pubs
Beauty Salons
Worship Weddings and Funerals
Airlines
Qantas, next week at least, will continue with its very restricted timetable. Rex as far as I can see has no flights.
WALKAROUNDS
I have been out visiting businesses during this last week. With my very limited skills I have taken photos and posted them on the Chamber Facebook page. I’ll continue to get around to see as many businesses as I can while working at my day job. They all have their own COVID story to tell and all of them could do with our continuing support.
All the best. Stay safe, stay distant.
