Hospitality businesses all over the UK are struggling, mine included.
20% of anything we make goes straight into the governments coffers, and with rising food costs (over 30% of income goes on ingredients), fuel and staff costs, it’s never been tougher.
We are a small business delivering good work, education, supporting local suppliers, providing work for young people, doing everything possible to adhere to piles of regulations.
But 1/5th of every £1 earned goes to the government and for what 🤷🏻‍♀️?
The rest of Europe pays on average 10% VAT…
Please sign the petition so small businesses like ours can continue to educate.

It is with a heavy heart ❤️ that we say goodbye to Theo…

This exceptional young man is a role model for any young person who is not sure of their path in life..

Theo joined us as a volunteer pot washer in 2023, then became a paid part time kitchen assistant. He showed a major interest in flavours and techniques so embarked on a Commis Chef level 2 apprenticeship.
He passed with distinction and became our Commis chef but more than that he started teaching and doing demos at food festivals and other events.
The pinnacle of his time with us was when he won Gloucestershire Apprentice of the year at the Soglos awards in 2025 and yes we cried…

We are sad to be losing him but also very proud of him spreading his wings to further his knowledge and to venture into the wider world of becoming a Sous Chef.
There is no doubt this young man is going places

We wish him all the luck in the world 🌍

With love from the team at HBCS
