If you are on a low income and are unable to work because you have been told by NHS Test and Trace that you have to self-isolate, you may be eligible for a lump sum payment of £500 as part of the Government’s Test and Trace Support Payment scheme.
From 08 March 2021, parents or guardians of children who have been told to self-isolate by their school or childcare setting will now be able to make an application.
