When the nights get colder and the crowds get bigger, security teams become the quiet backbone of the room.
If you see something off—or someone struggling—speak to a licensed operative. Staying vigilant isn’t paranoia; it’s how we protect each other.

Nightlife businesses are staring down rate rises that could double their bills, the kind of hit that can wipe out years of hard work overnight. The Treasury’s modelling isn’t matching the reality on the ground and operators are left choosing between paying staff or cutting shifts.

£800m for youth employment sounds bold, but it misses the heart of the issue.
In nightlife and hospitality, we’re losing venues fast. If we want real opportunities for young people, we need real support for the businesses that hire them.

Wales’ new £116m business rates support package is a rare moment of good news for operators.

Slower increases, fairer valuations and a lower rate for small retail might finally give operators space to stabilise instead of constantly firefighting.

To close the webinar, Deborah will also perform a powerful spoken word piece on what it really feels like to be welcome in a space, not just allowed in.

If you care about making “Everyone Is Welcome” real for LGBTQI+, trans, disabled and neurodivergent people, you’ll want to hear her.
November 24, 2025 at 3:39 PM
Deborah has done what many only talk about - moving teams from awkward and unsure to confident, accountable and genuinely inclusive.

She’ll share how to go beyond posters and policies to real culture change, and why inclusion is not just the right thing to do, but smart, sustainable business.

We’re excited to welcome our Special Guest Speaker for More Than a Sticker: Making “Everyone Is Welcome” Actually Mean Something.

No plus-one, no problem.
More people are heading to gigs & raves solo and finding freedom, connection and clarity on the dance floor. The lone raver isn’t lonely; they’re leading a quiet cultural shift.
