If Hospitality don't get a VAT reduction in next weeks Budget, The Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt will knowingly be allowing 1000's businesses go bust, meaning 10,000's job losses. Decimation on his watch.

‘THIS IS AN EMERGENCY’ - MANCHESTER’S HOSPITALITY SCENE CALLS FOR GOVERNMENT TO REDUCE VAT TO 10% Our hospitality scene is in crisis. Restaurants across the country are closing at an alarming rate, and many chefs, owners and operators across Manchester are ‘on a cliff edge’. They are calling for a reduction in VAT to 10% from the current crippling rate of 20%, more than double the average seen across Europe. It would ease the pressure they’re facing from rocketing energy bills and the cost of raw materials. Your favourite restaurant could close tomorrow. To stop that happening, watch our film and sign the petition here: bit.ly/3vVMp5A

Please take a few minutes to write to your MP to ask that they attend this event and support independent hospitality businesses

Thoughts on VAT reduction for Hospitality. I left a meeting in London this week, feeling the most positive I ever have about achieving this. Still a long shot, but we need to come together. One ask. One voice. Update soon.

We are going to be using this platform to help shine a light on the current economic challenges facing independent hospitality businesses. If there is anything we can do to amplify your business or a campaign you would like us to share, then please message or @ us! #hospitality

We've been a bit quiet on here for a few years! How's everyone doing?
