Scotland’s biggest black and minority ethnic network is calling on the Scottish government to “show it can do things differently” by extending its £500 self-isolation support grant to all those with no recourse to public funds (NRPF) because of their immigration status.
People on low incomes in Scotland are now eligible to receive a £500 grant if told to self-isolate, which is administered by local authorities. Applications opened on 12 October.
