Went to Chroma Sport to meet with Darren. He is supporting the campaign to remove VAT on school uniform.
As it stands, clothing and shoes for young children are charged at zero rate VAT. But for uniform for children 14 plus the full standard VAT rate of 20% is charged.
As children have become bigger and taller - the VAT charge is capturing uniform for younger children.
I went to listen and learn - I have written to the Chancellor about this campaign.
