Proud to be a part of the @skiddle team ♥️ supporting the UK's culture and not taking any grants from the venues, promoters and arts organisations that need it the most.
We call on you, the UK Government to get a grip. A funding process should be fair. We need a clear roadmap out of the pandemic, and a conversation around what the future might hold for our much loved music and cultural sector ❤️ Full letter 👉 bit.ly/31s0Pby

We stand with the #WeMakeEvents protest in Parliament Square today. The Gov’s new job scheme supporting ‘viable’ jobs does little for the U.K. events industry which has all but shutdown. This sector is worth tens of billions to the economy and supports 1m jobs - IT IS VIABLE!

Do you know how much the #EventsIndustry is worth to the UK? As of 2019 it was £84bn. Let's get this retweeted to show @RishiSunak & @BorisJohnson what they are ignoring. #Journalists, you will find the source of these figures here: conference-news.co.uk/corona… Get sharing #Eventprofs
