Is it acceptable that through all 4 nations of the uk micro and small business owners are still not receiving their closed business grants? Why are LA’s not given a deadline to pay by? @nadhimzahawi @carolynharris24 @carolinenokes @beisgovuk @BAW_APPG @hmtreasury @

[The Federation Of Nail Professionals @the_fnp_]

Nail professionals throughout the Wales are still waiting for their grants leaving many with no money to fund their business costs. @MarkDrakeford @KenSkatesMS @garethsandiland @JamesDavies @GarethDavies_MP @DavidDavisMP @AlunCairns @carolynharris24 push councils to pay NOW!

Great opportunity to find out about this step in the right direction from VTCT

[Salon Standards Alliance @SalonStandards]

Working on our industry’s behalf to make sure we have clarity and assistance

[APPG on Beauty, Hair & Wellbeing @BAW_APPG]

The APPG will be making representations to the Prime Minister @10DowningStreet, Chancellor @RishiSunak & BEIS Secretary @AlokSharma_RDG to:

1⃣ Confirm that hair, beauty & wellness services will be allowed to open when lockdown is lifted
2⃣ Extend the VAT cut to these services

An interesting interview with @RishiSunak from @glamourmag with a view on the beauty industry and entrepreneurship https://t.co/kCy4qeQz40

@fmwales Precisely how are SE businesses without premises meant to survive, we still have operating costs and families to feed! Can’t see a penny of support for us! You are KILLING our economy and doing way more damage than COVID ever could!

[Salon Standards Alliance @SalonStandards]

We thank our representative APPG for keeping up pressure. Safe working is vital but if we are held back we will require, as a matter of urgency, further financial support before our industry collapses

[APPG on Beauty, Hair & Wellbeing @BAW_APPG]

The hair, beauty and wellness industry cannot be overlooked anymore.

Co-chairs @carolynharris24 and @JudithCummins are calling on @BorisJohnson to provide the industry with a financial support package to ensure the long-term health of the sector.

[Salon Standards Alliance @SalonStandards]

Thank you @carlynharris and the @BAW_APPG for recognising the struggles of our industry. More time out and heavier restrictions, less financial support and having been ridiculed by ignorant, sexist MPs - this needs to change.

[Carolyn Harris @carolynharris24]

💅💇‍♀️ The hair and beauty industry is an economic powerhouse:

📈 £30 bn contribution to the UK economy
👭 Employs 37,000 people — predominantly women
🛍️ 49,000 businesses, helping to support vibrant high streets

It must be supported as our economy recovers from Coronavirus.

[Salon Standards Alliance @SalonStandards]

@carolynharris24 Thank you to you and your colleagues for providing support to our industry. It is time we were taken seriously by male MPs who, it would seem, are unable to see beyond their own ignorance to understand the benefits of self esteem, wellness, confidence and support we offer clients

@MbeMillie Millie we are proud to have you covering our backs. This had been a rollercoaster of a week and we come to the end of the week standing united #valueofbeauty

[Salon Standards Alliance @SalonStandards]

@carolinenokes I have just been forwarded a clip of your statement in the house regarding hair/barbers and beauty. Thank you for your sensible words in regards to the separation of hair & beauty. To have our date removed and be given no new date is unacceptable. #valueofbeauty

[Salon Standards Alliance @SalonStandards]

Please don’t underestimate those of us who choose to work in the beauty sector. We are more than glitter! We support women & men throughout the nation in times of joy, happiness, stress & sadness. #wearemore #valueofbeauty @AlokSharma_RDG @bbeautycouncil @BorisJohnson

[Salon Standards Alliance @SalonStandards]

@William_Wragg Thank you for updating however this is more about the response from the House in relation to our industry than your initial comment. Although not the words we would perhaps have chosen it’s highlighted rife parliamentary chauvinism towards a mainly female sector #valueofbeauty
