While hundreds of locals are sadly closing their doors across Britain, communities in Wales are doing something incredible: they are actually growing their pub scene. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍺

​A fascinating new study reveals how a deep-rooted love for community gatherings and a good old-fashioned session is keeping the Welsh pub trade alive and kicking.

​Are you lucky enough to have a thriving local near you? Let us know where you're drinking tonight! 👇

Independent pubs continue to bring individuality and personality into British hospitality in ways that chain venues often struggle to replicate.

Many independent pubs reflect the character, history, and identity of the communities they serve. From the atmosphere and décor to the staff and regular customers, these venues often feel deeply connected to local culture.

Supporting independent pubs means supporting hospitality businesses that continue to prioritise authenticity and community familiarity.

Support independent pubs in your area.

☀️ Come and enjoy the sunshine this Bank Holiday ☀️

🚨 Hospitality in the UK is at breaking point 🚨

Something has to change — and it has to change NOW.

Every single day, pubs are closing their doors for the last time.
Independent cafés, caterers, restaurants and food businesses are being pushed beyond their limits while costs continue to rise from every angle.

🍺 TWO pubs a day are reportedly closing in the UK.
🏪 National chains are collapsing.
💷 Energy, food, staffing and operating costs are soaring.
📈 Yet hospitality businesses are still expected to survive under a VAT system that simply isn’t fair.

Hospitality is one of the hardest-working industries in the country.
We employ millions, support local communities, create jobs for young people, bring people together and keep town centres alive.

But right now many businesses are spending more time fighting to survive than planning for the future.

A reduced VAT rate for hospitality would: ✅ Help protect jobs
✅ Keep independent businesses alive
✅ Support local economies
✅ Allow businesses to invest and grow
✅ Help stop the constant wave of closures

Without urgent action, more pubs, cafés, caterers and restaurants will disappear from our high streets forever.

Hospitality doesn’t want handouts.
It wants a fair chance.

It’s time for the Government to listen to the industry before it’s too late.
