Painting the world Pink - PinkUk’s newsletter No. 6

London Pride, Soho, 2019

The times, they are a changin’ - in the UK at any rate. So, after encouraging people to eat out in pubs and restaurants in August at taxpayers’ expense, in September the Government sent a shiver down the spine of the hospitality, industry including many LGBTQ+ businesses, by requiring all bars and pubs to close at 10pm in England to combat COVID-19.

We’d like to hear how you are coping in whatever retail or LGBTQ+ scene environment, whether as a customer or as a venue / supplier and whether in the UK or internationally.

Please tell us your story We are committed to all our listed venues and the people who rely on them through thick and thin.

Love & Pink Respect from Dave & the team, PinkUk
