Kingman Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Insight into an example of workforce issues in the NHS. The gentleman in the video is Dr Rob Galloway, Consultant in Emergency Medicine at Brighton & Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust. He is the doctor in charge of the workforce issues for doctors for the Covid-19 major incident at this Trust and he is addressing junior doctors at the Trust.

Kingman Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) There are some grants available. Coronavirus (COVID-19) guidance for employees, employers and businesses - GOV.UK says £10,000 for small businesses that pay little or no business rates and are eligible for small business rate relief (SBBR) and will be contacted by their local authority. £25,000 for retail, hospitality and leisure businesses operating from smaller premises, with a rateable value between £15,000 and £51,000.I don't think it's applicable for Limited companies that work from a home office or client site but worth a try If you are concerned about being able to pay your tax due to COVID-19, call HMRC’s dedicated helpline on 0800 0159 559.

I suspect they're making it shit so people give up and they get their money anyway. There is always that. I shall not be giving up however. I have been reading of people playing the 'click again' game into the early hours like yourself on some consumer help forum. Seems to be very little success presently.

I read something earlier about going into incognito mode in Chrome, entering everything yourself manually and doing it in the early hours of the morning. People were having some success with that.

Back in early Feb a news report said if the couldn’t reopen their Shanghai and Tokyo resorts by end of Feb it was going to cost them around $175m. Since then they’ve had to close all their American resorts on top, and Euro Disney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Half of my team working from home have headaches, coughs, and a few are reporting a temperature. I just have a dry cough. Could be something else far less serious going around of course, but none of us will be tested. A few friends online are in a similar boat. The reported numbers of cases are likely to be vastly under reported, based on how difficult it is to get a test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 You’d be surprised at how many people hoard cash. I’ve got 800 Gambian Dalasi in a drawer somewhere, and a couple of Euros! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
