To Rishi Sunak
Rishi Sunak just announced that self-employed people can access the 4th self-employed support grants (SEISS). But we're not allowed to access it until the end of April. That means no support for February, March or most of April. Let alone for the millions who have had no support at all.
Waiting even longer will mean I won't have a business to go back to. How are we supposed to pay our bills? It's not right, we're all in urgent need. The payment date should be brought forward.

Petition text
Millions of us cannot wait until the end of April to get access to government help. It's putting all of our families and businesses at risk, and does not compare to the furlough scheme at all.
Whether we've had support before or not. The need for self-employed people is urgent. Our livelihoods are getting destroyed. But our rent, mortgages, bills and costs of living aren't changing one bit.
Please bring the SEISS payment date forward now.
Release SEISS 4th grant sooner - end of April is too late!
Next step - spread the word
Release SEISS 4th grant sooner - end of April is too late!
