Against a background of increasingly insecure work and ever-rising living costs, an alarming number of hospitality households fell into the most serious categories of debt in 2024. Our award helped to provide grants to hospitality workers facing the threat of eviction or court action for unpaid utility or council tax bills. For working families, the very real threat of homelessness often had a catastrophic impact on their mental health sometimes resulting in periods of absence from work. The Benefact Group donation ensured we were able to support even more hospitality families facing crisis such as these.
"Whether it's assisting individuals through illness, helping families facing financial hardship, or offering vital mental health resources, Hospitality Action is dedicated to supporting hospitality workers in times of crisis, through no fault of their own. Since 2020, we have spent some £4 million and provided over 12,500 grants to hospitality households across the UK. We deeply appreciate the generosity of the Benefact Group, whose charitable donation helps ensure our essential work can continue."
