Ruth and Lucy step a little out of their comfort zone forthis episode, diving into the UK Autumn Budget and its impact on the hospitality sector. While they’re neither politicians nor finance experts, they’re asking the questions that matter most to hospitality business owners—because we all want to understand, in plain English, what these changes mean for us.

Here’s what we’re exploring in Part One:

🔹 Significant Changes:Now that the dust has settled, what are the key takeaways for hospitality? Topics like the National Insurance increase and Minimum Wage changes are front of mind.

🔹 Support forHospitality: Are there measures or financial support available to ease the adjustment period for our industry?

🔹 Consumer Spending: Will the budget influence how much customers are willing to spend?

The goal is to cut through the noise and get to the heart of how these updates will impact our teams, our venues, and our communities.
