DITCH THE VAT - Zero VAT on sports, fitness classes and sporting goods, forever

Petition Details

DITCH THE VAT

Its simple…

Zero VAT on sports, fitness classes and sporting goods means people have more access to the things that will help them stay active and fit.

Which will put less pressure on the NHS.

It also means jobs can be saved in the fitness and sports industry.

Additional Information

DITCH THE VAT 

The UK government has stated that reducing obesity and encouraging fitness is a top priority. But it has failed to take action! They continue to discourage participation in sport by needlessly raising prices by 20% through VAT

Science tells us that regular exercise: 

Has huge health benefits
Increases happiness
Can help protect against COVID
Has significant mental health benefits
Is positively correlated to success in life
Increases life expectancy
Will save the NHS billions
