Leaving the European Union is the most significant change in Britain’s policy as a country in a generation. As we pass the 100-day mark since the end of the transition period, 10 people from across the UK tell us in their own words how Brexit has affected them.
We tell the story of a business owner whose company faces closure as he struggles to reach his customers in Europe; we hear from a classical musician unable to ply their trade; we hear from a farmer concerned about what the future holds for their farm. And many more.

The ten people in this report, and the millions like them, face an uncertain future after Brexit. There is no quick fix for resolving their issues. But this report sets out a handful of urgent measures the government can put in place to soften the blow felt by many.
