Drinks United has partnered with the Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) to launch its first industry-wide survey. 

The survey seeks to gather insight into how the UK drinks industry can be more united, inclusive and supportive by understanding the lived experiences of professionals across the trade. 

Drinks United said that by identifying challenges, opportunities and areas in need of change, it can create a shared foundation for all initiatives going forward. 

Nicky Burston, CEO of The Drinks Trust, said: “The strength of our industry lies in its people. By listening to their voices and experiences, we can work together to create a culture where everyone feels safe, respected and valued. This survey is an opportunity for the entire drinks trade to help shape the future of our sector.” 

The survey is live and open to anyone working in any area of the drinks trade, closing on 17 October 2025. The findings will be published early next year.
