A rebound in household spending in the third quarter will likely shape the recovery going forward.

The lion's share of that 7.3% rebound in household expenditure will be towards the back end of the second quarter as the accommodation and food services sector saw output increase 10.1% following the major unlocking of May 17.

"The pace of the UK’s vaccination programme – which has successfully delivered two Covid jabs into the arms of 75% of the adult population – is an important factor and may explain why UK growth has soared to treble that of Germany and four times that of its European neighbour France," says Sam Fuller, Director of Financial Markets Online.

North East win race back to pubs and restaurants, as spending rises 77%.

England’s so-called ‘Freedom Day’ on 19 July 2021 prompted a surge in spending which surpassed pre-pandemic levels in 2019, according to the latest Lloyds Bank Spending Power Report.

Pub punters and restaurant goers spent 53% more in the three weeks following 19 July 2021, than the same period in 2019, as well as 41% more on cultural recreational activities, such as museums and attractions.

Spending on goods also passed the 2019 level, as lockdown savings were put to use. Shopping for clothes increased by 16%, alongside a huge 60% rise in purchases from department stores. Almost a third more (31%) was spent on electrical goods, perhaps driven by former commuters investing in tech to kit out their home offices.
