National Minimum Wage update

The Government has announced the annual national minimum wage increases for 2025, in acceptance of the Low Pay Commission’s (LPC) recommendations.

From 1 April 2025 the following rates will apply:

  • 21 and over - £12.21 (up 77p from £11.44)
  • 18 - 20 - £10 (up £1.40 from £8.60)
  • Apprentices - £7.55 (up £1.15 from £6.40)

This is the first step to a unified single rate for all adults, and the largest rise on record for the under 21s.
