Story
Have you ever seen an outdoor café sprawled across an entire city?
More than 1,000 restaurants, pubs, bars, cafes and clubs are proposing the transformation of selected UK streets and squares into a Grand Summer Outdoor Café.
Experiences like pubs, craft beer bars, street food stalls, live music venues, food halls and high-end restaurants have been a part of this country’s identity for locals and visitors alike. Slowly and safely allowing us all to enjoy this summer is an essential step in the right direction and we'd like to ask for your support!
85% of your donation will fund the food and drinks vouchers for keyworkers who have been keeping us safe during this pandemic to enjoy at the UK wide Summer Outdoor Cafe. 15% will be used to cover the cost of admin and the people who have made this happen as well as VAT. In the event that the government fails to allow its stated blanket permission, all vouchers will be redeemable in participating restaurants and bars instead.

We're so excited to present our fundraising single "Hero" performed by 32 talented musicians from The Piano Works. Enjoy!
If you have a business and would like to donate an experience (Nail and hair salon, gyms, spas, shops etc.) please get in touch: support@ukgsoc.org

The UKs Grand Outdoor Summer Cafe
5 years agoWe are thrilled that Robert Jenrick, the Local Government Minister, listened to our proposal. In the Sunday Telegraph 17th May he was reported as saying that ” he is considering a “blanket permission” for restaurants and cafes to use squares or pedestrianised streets for chairs and tables”

The UKs Grand Outdoor Summer Cafe
5 years agoThe first stage of our campaign was to get independent hospitality operators on board, we now have over 70 . We then sent an open letter to Alok Sharma, the Minister for Business, to ask the Govt. to allow local authorities to permit hospitality operators to use our open spaces and squares outside their venues to serve food and drinks. We now need to raise money by asking the public to donate money to provide our amazing frontline workers with food and drink vouchers that can be used at the Grand Summer Outdoor Cafe. They deserve our thanks.
