Hello CWPHC,
You mentioned that part of your work involves the NHS and local councils.
According to the guidance, you cannot claim if more than half of your work is in the public sector (like local councils and NHS services) unless you are a charity.
You have not specified the amount of your work that belongs to the public sector, so I am unable to advise on your eligibility.
Please refer to the guidance at:
Employment Allowance: Check if you're eligible for more information on eligibility and criteria.
Thank you.
