🍻 Pubs With Purpose

Good pubs aren’t built overnight.
They’re built by people who actually care.

That’s the difference.

📢 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. (UKHospitality)

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. (VAT’s the problem)
