solihull-survey(900637)

The business support team at Solihull Council are asking firms across the borough to complete a survey which will help them understand the impact of the cost of living crisis.

The information from the survey will help the council to refine their understanding of how the current energy prices and cost of living increases are affecting local businesses.

The council will then us this information to develop their business support strategy.

The data provided will help the team to signpost businesses to additional support and create support events and topics.

Sector led information may also support them with setting up steering groups should they identify sectors with additional support needs.

All business names/contact names will remain confidential but anonymised feedback will be shared with external groups.

The survey is available here and the deadline is 31 December.

In addition, the council is working with a range of organisations to offer free support and advice for residents.

Help with food, energy, financial advice and wellbeing is available at www.solihull.gov.uk/here2help and includes a downloadable booklet. Please share this with your employees and staff.
