The Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, has announced a £300,000 fund aimed at supporting bars and restaurants in offering al fresco dining. This initiative will allow local councils to apply for funding to create new outdoor spaces, streamline regulatory processes, and potentially waive fees. Khan emphasized the importance of London's diverse hospitality sector for tourism and local employment, stating that the fund would facilitate growth and reduce bureaucratic barriers for businesses during the summer season.
This new 300,000 Summer Streets Fund will help to kickstart al fresco dining and extend opening hours this summer, allowing the industry to thrive.
As the days get longer and temperatures rise, the ability for venues to trade outdoors and extend their hours isn't a luxury, it's essential.
