Let’s keep Heathfield moving and supporting one another.
Did you know the UK imposes a massive 20% VAT on hospitality? That is far higher than the USA, Canada, Australia, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy (who all support hospitality with lower rates, some as low as 7%). Even Ireland is shortly dropping theirs to 9%.
This crushing tax rate forces your favourite local family pubs, independent coffee shops, and community spaces into a corner. To survive, they have to curtail services, cut opening hours, and stop growing. Worse still, just hitting the VAT registration threshold can instantly wipe out up to 16% of a business’s revenue.
Celebrity chef Tom Kerridge is spearheading the national #VATsTheProblem campaign, and Heathfield Chamber of Commerce is backing it 100%. We need your voice to protect the local venues you love.
Take action in 60 seconds:
✔️ Click the link below.
✔️ Sign the national petition.
✔️ Demand a fair reduction to 10% VAT.
Let’s stand together to protect our jobs, support our independent businesses, and keep Heathfield thriving.
