Latest news from PinkUk - our newsletter for November 2020


Painting the world Pink - PinkUk’s newsletter No. 7

Peter Tachel
Human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell and colleague at a UK Pride in 2019. Can you tell which one?  


Venues more optimistic now than in April 2020 

Thanks to those UK LGBTQ+ venues and organisations whom we invited to complete a short straw poll online last month. We’ll share more information in the next newsletter, but we found amidst all the doom and gloom in these times that more LGBTQ+ UK venues were optimistic about the next six months than they were in April during the first lockdown.

In September 23% of venue organisers said they were less optimistic while 38.5% said they were more optimistic, 30.8% said there was no change and 7.7% said they had no opinion. Note: the survey was under-taken before the second UK lockdown was imposed. 

Love & Pink Respect from Dave & the team, PinkUk

Featured Venue: Historic Georgian Bath

Darcy's Pride

Featured: Darcy’s Pride apartment in the Georgian city of Bath 

Almost made for Mr Darcy himself, Darcy's Pride is in the heart of historic Georgian Bath. This stunning two bedroom apartment is surrounded by classic architecture, galleries, museums, fine restaurants and gorgeous boutiques. 

A spacious communal entrance leads you up the stairs to the top floor apartment where you will find two bedrooms, one bath-room and a well proportioned kitchen/lounge/diner all with a quite special ‘boudoir’ feel. The apartment is tastefully decorated, has an original feature fireplace and benefits from sash windows throughout. Darcy’s Pride 6 Bennett St. Bath, BA1 2QQ UK

Congrats on your first pride

The Scottish island of Arran’s first Pride will be on 21st May 2021 and is aiming to be a fun family one-day event for all to enjoy and will offer some much needed sales opportunities for local businesses and crafters. Arran Pride would love to hear from businesses to be part of the event. Arran Pride will promote lead up events on its Facebook page.
