Join the GIFTCARD500 campaign

The GIFTCARD500 campaign has been newly re-launched to be an important part of supporting the economy during the cost-of-living crisis.

Work is already underway, including a written letter to Chancellor Jeremy Hunt and Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves, but there is lots more to come; Phase 1 supporting partners will discuss next steps and campaign plan in an upcoming workshop.

Benefits:

  • Businesses supporting and retaining staff

  • Employees dealing with the cost of living crisis

  • The retail, hospitality and leisure sectors during a period of low economic growth

  • Driving money back into the economy

What's next

PHASE 1:

  • Full refresh of campaign materials (including template letters, briefs and social media content) - will be made available for all GCVA members to use

  • Briefings for key policymakers

  • Campaign press work to raise the profile of our work

  • Draft of a full plan of 2024 activity

PHASE 2:

  • Establish ongoing campaign platform, which lobbies on the industry’s behalf

  • Standing working group to push for a change

  • Deliver a full campaign plan of engagement activity
