    Executive Director at FOR Cardiff, Cardiff's Business Improvement District

    This week, High Streets UK hosted its first-ever forum in Liverpool, focusing on the pressing issue of business rates. As a collective, we agreed that a fairer, more sustainable system is crucial for supporting businesses and revitalizing our high streets. We've outlined our key recommendations and joint statement here: https://lnkd.in/eEHSCAu4 A huge thank you to Liverpool BID Company for hosting this important discussion—it was incredibly valuable to share insights and challenges from across the UK. Earlier today, FOR Cardiff held its Annual Review event, where I reflected on the challenges facing our members, celebrated our successes over the past year, and looked ahead to the future of both our company and the city. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us Biggest learn from this week.....use my hands less! 🤦♀️

    This week, High Streets UK held its inaugural forum in Liverpool, which focused on business rates reform in response to the Government’s Business Rates Discussion Paper. Hosted by Liverpool BID Company, the session provided a crucial platform to discuss the Government’s proposed changes and put forward policy recommendations which will support growth and protect flagship high streets. Larger retail, hospitality, leisure and professional services businesses are not just occupiers of prime city centre properties, they are major employers, footfall drivers, and anchors for local economies. Yet, the Chancellor’s proposal to increase the business rates multiplier for properties with a rateable value over £500,000 risks pushing these critical locations to the brink. High Streets UK is calling on the Government to take urgent action to avoid unintended consequences such as store closures and job losses.
