There is still confusion around just what business classes as an essential service – so we made a list of businesses operating through the lockdown.
By no means extensive, the following list will hopefully prove useful.
If you know of or run a business that is operating through level 4 lockdown restrictions, and want to be added to this list, please email [email protected]
