Councillor Darren Byford, portfolio holder for economic growth, said: "Our teams have been working around the clock to take calls from businesses and proactively contact businesses to find out what support they need and to signpost them to help, advice and funding.
"The survey will help us to make that support even better and will help us to plan for the long-term so that we can help businesses to recover once things start to return to normality.
"If you are a local business, please take part in our survey and also, if you do need support, don’t hesitate to get in touch and we will do everything we can to help."
