It’s not the end of the road

As we approach the twelve-month mark since COVID-19 ripped its way through the world as we once knew, its important to remember It’s not the end of the road.

The numbers are worrying

According to the latest SBI (Small Business Index) survey it is expected to see a record number of small businesses ‘shut shop’.

Over the course of the next 12 months, more than quarter of a million businesses will close their doors.

No-doubt increasing the unemployment numbers, something that as a nation we have worked so hard to reduce.

It is anticipated that a large number of small business owners will attempt to keep trading despite closed businesses, reduction in staff members and having taken on large creditor commitments.

It is also expected that the impact of continuing to trade a ‘struggling businesses’ will have server impacts on mental health.

According to the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) there are 5.9 million small firms across the UK.

It is estimated that 16.8 million people work for small businesses. It is therefore alarming to see the statistics gathered by the FSB (Federation of Small Businesses).
