Analysis of government data by Charity Finance Group has estimated that charities’ total business rate bill will double by the end of the decade.
By 2020, charities will be spending over £400m a year on business rates.

Charity Finance Group has written to the government to ask for the level of mandatory charitable business rate relief to be increased to 100% in the upcoming Budget.
