Hospitality is already struggling, and now newly released papers show that street licensing fees are set to increase again this year — without any public consultation. This is unfair, unreasonable, and adds even more pressure to small businesses that are just trying to survive.

We can’t let these decisions go unchallenged. We need to keep raising our voices, holding councils to account, and bringing this issue to the attention of those in government who need to hear it. Every signature, every share, and every comment helps shine a light on what’s happening.

Thank you for standing with us — the fight isn’t over.
