Study of people not recieving any financial support
People are falling through the gaps in support funding.
I am one those!
I have not heard back from DWP since the start of lockdown regarding contributions based job seekers.
I am a business owner with premesis, signed off from planning for change of use in November 19.
Apparently it has not been assessed for valuation roll between then and mid March, so not eligible for small business grant.
I worked in employment until 31st January, I was confident then that I had a diary full of appointments and booking to sustain a living. No back up having paid off start up debt.
Thus, not making me eligible for hardship fund.
Even then, the hardship fund over 3-4 months is very tight to live off with business expenses.
People can not afford to feed families and pay bills.
Why the contribution is important
People are living on no income at present.
