I have two employees and could potentially furloughed both of them, but I haven't done. Both are working remotely for me, as best possible. I could have probably managed without them at a push as the amount of calls we are receiving has significantly dropped as my customers have more important matters to deal with themselves.
I'm just running things as best I can to minimise disruption/loss of income, with a view not to putting any burden on the state.
A number of my customers have had no choice to furlough, and in some cases will be paying full wages to retain their loyal staff, as it is not allowable for the employees to be at work.
I work at this care home and it is unbelievable how much coverage Ken has got, he can't believe it. He's such a lovely guy and has time for everyone. Some of his stories are fascinating. Credit to everyone involved.Watched good morning Britain this morning, piece from care home in Preston. Ken & Kia take a bow, not sure how to put it up on here but we’ll worth a watch. Not been able to visit my dad in his care home for over a month but this piece just shows how hard carers are working to protect the vulnerable in homes
Marcus Rashford, unbelievable effort and generosity. Clearly hasn’t forgotten his roots.

Big shout for them.

Odd that they didn’t actually access the scheme here. Games Workshop had announced similar I think along with another fairly big company that escapes me for now
I‘m sure The Telegraph have done it.
