Money Box - Assistance for the self-employed
Download Assistance for the self-employed
This week the Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced the Government’s much anticipated help package for the self employed. Only about two thirds of an estimated 6m workforce will gain anything, leaving over a million people without help. We look at the package in more detail, including the changes to benefits and hear top tips for getting paid in a timely manner.
And the banks were quick to promise support for customers in need but are they actually delivering? Money Box listeners tell us their experiences.
