Please help us support this campaign for fairer VAT rules to bring us in line with the rest of Europe.
2 pubs a day are closing in England currently and the VAT rate is the biggest contributor to this fact.

📢 PLEASE SUPPORT THIS IMPORTANT CAMPAIGN FOR HOSPITALITY 📢
As many of you know, our industry continues to face increasing costs and financial pressures. A new nationwide campaign, backed by leading hospitality figures including Tom Kerridge, is calling on the Government to reduce VAT for hospitality businesses from 20% to 10%, bringing the UK more in line with many European countries.
This could make a significant difference to pubs, bars, restaurants, cafés and hotels across the country, helping to protect jobs, support investment and safeguard the future of our industry.
