Please sign and share this petition if you care about small independent hospitality.
Reducing VAT on hospitality to 10% would make a real difference to restaurants, cafés, pubs and takeaways across the UK.
When a hospitality business closes, HMRC doesn’t just lose VAT — it loses PAYE, business rates, corporation tax, jobs, supplier spend, tourism income and local economic activity.
This isn’t about businesses asking for special treatment. It’s about giving viable businesses a fair chance to survive, protect jobs and keep our towns and villages alive.
Small business hospitality is under huge pressure.
Please sign, share, and help get this debated.
Thank you ❤️

Reduce VAT on hospitality to 10% to prevent closures & protect tax revenue. When venues close, HMRC loses 100% of its VAT, business rates, PAYE & corporation tax, reducing employment & supply chains. We believe a lower VAT rate would keep viable businesses trading, securing jobs & ongoing revenue.
