Hello and welcome
to the March issue of Venue Insight Magazine, the MUST HAVE publication for the UK hospitality industry.
Here we go then, we’re back in business from April, albeit outdoors only but it’s massive news for the sector and has been a welcomed dose of positivity that we’ve all needed so very much. The hospitality industry can finally start to get back on its feet and tentatively plan its recovery. Fingers crossed for some glorious weather and the hottest summer on record!
We hear from Oliver Rowbury, co-Founder of Goodtill by SumUp as to why EPOS is key to the return of music venues. Of all the industries that have felt the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, music venues have suffered more than most. In fact, a recent report published by UK Music found that the industry will halve in size as a result of the pandemic.
The HEINEKEN Benefits Bar is now open! To help on-trade businesses recover and give them every opportunity for success this year, HEINEKEN UK has unveiled an
exclusive network of resources available to its customers. Right now, licensees need a partner who has got their back and who understands the industry as well as they do. Because it never stops when you run your own business, so HEINEKEN want to take away some of the hassle.
Almost two thirds (62%) of UK hospitality and entertainment workers required intervention or medication to cope with workplace stress in 2019 and in 2020, this figure was even higher. But confidential, affordable, help is at hand with Business Mental Wellbeing. If you’re feeling under the pump which so many in the industry are right now, be sure to reach out to them.
Brockmans Gin get us in the mood for the start of spring and Easter with a couple of delicious plant-based gin cocktails with the ‘What’s Up Brock?’ and the ‘Purple Spring’.
Keep going , we’re into the final furlong now.
