GotPhoto demands greater support for solo self-employed persons
GotPhoto demands greater support for solo self-employed persons
Why this petition matters
Our aim at GotPhoto is always to support and protect the interests of nursery and school photographers. Therefore, we call on the government to give a greater level of support to all photographers, especially those who work as solo self-employed or entrepreneurs, in times of the corona crisis. Join us in standing up for yourself and others in your situation!
Individual school and nursery photographers, and of course photographers in other areas, often work as solo self-employed entrepreneurs and are therefore particularly hard hit by the current corona crisis. Sales often fall overnight and it is not clear when the establishments will reopen and new orders can be accepted.
The British Government has now adopted a package of measures to support companies in coping with the current situation such as the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme. You can read more about these here.
With such measures, we believe more businesses outside of the traditional sectors of leisure, hospitality, and retail can survive.
To this end, we have launched a strong petition for photographers, with which you can signal your support for the demand.
