Support your favourite venues, protect jobs and he

Support your favourite venues, protect jobs and help our local communities thrive by calling on the Government to reduce VAT for hospitality to 10%.

The UK has one of the highest VAT rates for hospitality in Europe. Every meal out or overnight stay includes 20% VAT. In comparison, France, Spain and Italy charge 10%, while Germany charges just 7%.

Join us in urging the Government to cut VAT for hospitality to give the sector the support it needs.

We're excited to be part of Global Birdfair again

We're excited to be part of Global Birdfair again this year, where people come together to celebrate birds and champion conservation. This year's Birdfair is shining a spotlight on the Critically Endangered Dwarf Ibis, found only on São Tomé, highlighting the urgent need to protect species and the habitats they depend on.

Rutland is home to almost 200 bird species due to our diverse habitats and the iconic Ospreys demonstrate the lasting impact of conservation and highlights why it is so important.

Hospitality venues are the beating heart of our co

Hospitality venues are the beating heart of our communities.

Sadly the sector is facing enormous pressure with rising costs of energy, food inflation and staffing costs and currently has one of the highest rates in Europe with France, Spain and Italy at 10% and Germany at 7%.

Today, the industry is backing the #VatsTheProblem campaign, calling for hospitality VAT to be reduced from 20% to 10% to help local businesses such as pubs, cafés, restaurants, hotels and many more.

A fairer VAT rate could mean more investment, more jobs and could strengthen our high streets.

Let's support the businesses that make Rutland such a special place.

If you are able, please share this far and wide and sign the petition (link in our bio)
