Unpaid leave

Hiya   :) im new to this so I hope I’m doing this right. I was just looking for a little bit of advice...I work in a hair salon and they are remaining open at this time. After a busy day yesterday  a fellow hair dress is rearranging all my appointments for next week to another stylist! When I confront my manager with what is going on they inform me that I will be taking two weeks off unpaid. They recommended that I take statutory sick pay yet I’m fit and well to work (so not sick or living with someone with symptoms) they have also said they will
not be taking part in the 80% wages scheme and I’m not sure why although I have my suspicions. If anyone can just offer me some advice that would be ace!
