answer text <p>The £750 million package offered unprecedented support to allow charities and social enterprises to continue their vital work in our national effort to fight coronavirus. This funding will continue to support this work over the winter.</p><p>We are not able to replace every pound of funding charities would have received this year, and many organisations will need to assess what measures they need to take. Information on the wider measures government has made available and details on how to access the support can be found on <a href="http://gov.uk/" target="_blank">gov.uk</a>. The Charity Commission has also published guidance on <a href="http://gov.uk/" target="_blank">gov.uk</a>, which sets out how charities can get support for their staff, advice on use of reserves, and other potential issues.</p><p>We will continue to work with the charity and social enterprise sectors to assess emerging needs and how we can best support them during the COVID-19 pandemic and through recovery.</p><p> </p>
