From 6 April 2023, the Vento guidelines, which provide ranges for injury to feelings awards in discrimination cases, will increase to:

  • For less serious cases, a lower band of £1,100 to £11,200 (previously £990 to £9,900);
  • For cases that do not merit an award in the upper band, a middle band of £11,200 to £33,700 (previously £9,900 to £29,600); and,
  • For the most serious cases, an upper band of £33,700 to £56,200 (previously £29,600 to £49,300), with the most exceptional cases capable of exceeding £56,200 (previously £49,300).
