Hide AdLouise Bennett, chief executive of the Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce, said: “As we have said from the outset of the pandemic, health must come first but the
latest restrictions to hit the region mean even more businesses will have to close their doors and it’s vitally important that Government continues to help firms to get through this.
“With the roll-out of the vaccine underway and the approval of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine, companies across Coventry and Warwickshire can see a light at the end of the
tunnel so it’s crucial that as many businesses as possible survive the difficult weeks ahead.
