Many thanks for your comment. It would probably be best to contact Liverpool City Council as they might be able to provide the most up-to-date information. Please visit the Business section on their website for further details.

I am looking at setting up a business here in Liverpool & wanted some more information regarding”

Special business benefits/dispensations
• Charitable and Discretionary Relief
• Hardship Relief
• Unoccupied Properties Relief
• Transitional Arrangements

What do these mean? Where can I find more information?

I also wondered if there was any specific information on industry sectors & number of players - IE: Businesses broken into groups & numbers - for instance - how many cafe’s in Liverpool? - Is this sort of information available?

lastly - where do I find out about health & safety?

Regards,
