#KeepTheLightsOn
It couldn’t be simpler
On Fri 9th and Sat 10th October –
1) When 10pm curfew comes, observe the rules and get your customers out.
2) Switch off your venue’s lights as normal.
3) Get your smartphone video camera ready.
4) Flash your venue’s lights on and off in the SOS pattern:
Short-short-short-long-long-long-short-short-short
5) Share the video on social media using the hashtag #KeepTheLightsOn and tag your MP and local media
You will be sending a strong message locally and nationally.
