A group that already set a different local rate is left as it is.\n- The Expenses help on that page explains the HMRC change, that 55p is a guide from Head office, that Groups and Areas may choose a lower local rate, and that questions can go to finance@ramblers.org.uk.\n- Future expense claims use the updated Cost Per Mile. Claims already submitted keep the rate they were created with.\n- Unity Trust Bank payment guidance on the expenses page is shown only to Finance Admin and Treasury Admin.\n- Stacked expense claims have a gap below the history table on the right.","contentHtml":"<h1>13-Oct-2026 — apply the 2026 HMRC mileage rate on committee settings <a href=\"https://github.com/nbarrett/ngx-ramblers/issues/427\">ref #427</a></h1>\n<h2><a href=\"https://github.com/nbarrett/ngx-ramblers/actions/runs/38445098826\">build 1000</a> — <a href=\"https://github.com/nbarrett/ngx-ramblers/commit/d0880a00a421cba9d0060ce4577734c48eae94d6\">commit d0880a0</a></h2>\n<hr>\n<h2>What&#39;s new</h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Committee <a href=\"https://ngx-ramblers.org.uk/admin/profile/expenses\" title=\"{{siteUrl}}\">Settings → Expenses</a> now uses 55p per mile as the Cost Per Mile for new sites, matching the HMRC rate that took effect from 6 April 2026.</li>\n<li>Groups still using the previous HMRC rate of 45p are updated to 55p.
