Self employed electrician with no work due to covid19 what are my options

[km12electrical]

Self employed electrician with no work due to corona virus. I’m a 1 man business carrying out work for private households mainly but due to cancellations I find myself with no work for foreseeable future.
What are my options.
Can I contact HMRC and say I’m no longer self employed and then apply for benefits and then when things pick up again contact HMRC and restart business

Focus on ya self mate and count ya blessings....live your life not theirs.....I’m sure a lot of em would swap ya!....understand your frustrations but all we can do is take a day at a time and be grateful we still here, in your position with savings minimal outgoings and a baby I’d sit home and ride this out and keep my family safe ?
