Bedford Borough Council and the NHS have teamed up with the Bedford Clanger and Bedford Independent to produce a new leaflet with information and signposting to support for local residents during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Government has announced details of an income support scheme for those that are self-employed. You cannot apply for this scheme yet, although HMRC will contact you if you are eligible for the scheme and invite you to apply online.
The sun is shining and beautiful weather is forecast to stay with us this week. But the clear message for all of us this weekend is to stay at home in order to save lives and protect our NHS.
Government advice remains we should stay at home apart from for essential reasons.
Businesses eligible for financial support under the government's schemes in response to the coronavirus pandemic have been encouraged to ensure they access the vital support available.
Today local councils in Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes and the NHS are joining together to thank our #EverydayHeroes who are supporting communities during this national crisis.
