The owner submitted false information to claim money which wasn't deserved and transferred most to an associated business
The owner of a Southport ice cream shop was hit with a 10 year ban from running any company after abusing a Covid support scheme to falsely claim a £50,000 government loan.
The government launched the BBL scheme during the Covid-19 pandemic as a way to help small and medium-sized businesses firms survive the loss of trade. Businesses such as Bella's, based on Lord Street in the town centre, had suffered a complete loss of trade during lockdown and then continued to struggle afterwards.However, there were strict rules applied to its terms which included a requirement for the money to spent only for the benefit of the business.
However, an investigation by the Insolvency Service found that the business had been incorporated in December 2018 and the accounts showed a turnover of £52,000 between March 2019-20. Meanwhile, bank analysis shows receipts of just £31,000 for that period.

Steeper memory decline after COVID-19 lockdown measures - Alzheimer's Research & TherapyBackground During COVID-19 lockdown measures, memory clinic patients reported worries for faster cognitive decline, due to loss of structure and feelings of loneliness and depression. We aimed to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 lockdown on rate of cognitive decline in a mixed memory clinic population, compared to matched historical controls. Methods We included patients who visited Alzheimer Center Amsterdam 6 months to 1 week before the first Dutch COVID-19 lockdown, and had a second visit 1 year later, after this lockdown period (n = 113; 66 ± 7 years old; 30% female; n = 55 dementia, n = 31 mild cognitive impairment (MCI), n = 18 subjective cognitive decline (SCD), n = 9 postponed diagnosis). Historical controls (visit in 2016/2017 and second visit 1 year later (n = 640)) were matched 1:1 to lockdown patients by optimal Mahalanobis distance matching (both groups n = 113). Groups were well matched. Differences between lockdown patients and historical controls over time in Mini-Mental State Examination, Trail Making Test part A and B, Rey-Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) immediate and delayed recall, and category fluency scores were analyzed using linear mixed effect models with random intercepts. We examined differences in rate of cognitive decline between whole groups, and after stratification in SCD, MCI, and dementia separately. Results Lockdown patients had a faster rate of memory decline compared to controls on both RAVLT immediate [B(SE) = − 2.62 (1.07), p = 0.015] and delayed recall [B(SE) = − 1.07 (0.34), p = 0.002]. Stratification by syndrome diagnosis showed that this effect was largely attributable to non-demented participants, as we observed faster memory decline during lockdown in SCD and MCI (RAVLT immediate [SCD: B(SE) = − 6.85 (2.97), p = 0.027; MCI: B(SE) = − 6.14 (1.78), p = 0.001] and delayed recall [SCD: B(SE) = − 2.45 (1.11), p = 0.035; MCI: B(SE) = − 1.50 (0.51), p = 0.005]), but not in dementia. Conclusion Memory clinic patients,
