You may be aware that, in April 2025, employer National Insurance (NI) contributions are due to rise from 13.8% to 15% and the level at which employers start paying NI on each employee’s salary will be reduced to £5,000 per year. This will inevitably increase financial pressure on social care providers, including charities, and many are campaigning for the government to exempt the sector from these changes. This has so far been refused.
We know that these concerns are shared by our communities, which are already under financial strain, and we are looking into how we can support campaigning efforts.
If you too are concerned, we encourage you to sign this petition:
Exempt all social care providers from the employer NIC increase – Petitions
