Supporting a permanent low rate of VAT now will reduce the potential for price rises that could follow a return to a 20% rate of VAT next year. A permanent low rate of VAT reduction has the potential to save consumers money when they eat out, visit an
attraction or book a break. A thriving hospitality industry creates competition which keeps prices affordable in the long term.
Greater choice on the high street
With a permanent low rate VAT, businesses can have confidence to invest and grow, opening new venues and providing different and diverse hospitality experiences for consumers to enjoy.
Support your favourite venues
It’s been an incredibly tough period for hospitality. But now, just as pubs and restaurants are getting back on their feet, a VAT rise scheduled for next year risks knocking them down and out for good.
Let’slock VAT in at 12.5% permanently and show our support for one of Britain's best-loved institutions: the local pub/hospitality venue.
