New job

I am currently furloughed and awaiting imminent redundancy. I have just been offered a new job. If I accept the new job will I still be eligible for the full redundancy payment? If I declare this new job now whilst furloughed, am I able to continue working in it during my 3 month notice period with my current employer? I hope this is clear? Thank you in advance.

Have you been given notice that you are being made redundant or just that you may be? If you have only been told you may be and hand your notice in then no you will not be eligible for redundancy pay as you had not been made redundant at that point. But your employer may pay it just to make sure you go if they need to make redudancies.
It is up to your current employer if they want you to work the notice period or not. If you are furloughed then the chances are they will not want you to work it.

If you leave during notice period you may well not get redundancy.
What is worth more to you? The redundancy money you will receive or the security of a job at a time when finding employment will become difficult?1
