I am writing in relation to the Coronavirus Local Restrictions Support Grants and the Restart Grants provided in 2020/2021. I would like to know the following information please:

1) How many Travel Agencies applied for the funding and how many successfully received the same from the Council?

2) How many Holiday Let Agencies applied for the funding and how many successfully received the same from the Council?

In response to the above questions, Herefordshire Council has paid restart grants for non-essential retail (667) and hospitality businesses (1632). Those that applied and passed the verification checks would have been paid. We do not maintain records of types of businesses in the categories requested and therefore cannot confirm the number of grants paid in relation to the above specific business types.
