VANARAMA has launched a Covid-19 Small Business Support Team to provide information and guidance to sole traders, self-employed and SMEs on how to access Government funding during the pandemic.

Chief Executive Andy Alderson said:  “There are more than five million self-employed people who make up 15% of the UK’s workforce, many of these are van-driving tradespeople who account for a substantial number of our loyal customers.

“We understand that this is an incredibly stressful time and finding the right government funding can be overwhelming.

“We pride ourselves in providing industry leading customer service, so, have further invested in training our customer service team so that they can offer sound advice and guide not only our existing clients but other small business owners in these difficult times.”

The free to use service provided by Vanarama can be accessed via  Covid-19 Small Business Support Team or by calling 0808 196 3900.

Up to date detailed information on all the support that the UK Government is offering as well frequently asked questions from mortgage holidays to life insurance queries can be found here.

The Vanarama Facebook group will provide a secure space for members to discuss issues and share their business stories.
