It was boss to speak to and hang out with loads of amazing people at #VenuesDay2022 yesterday. Thanks to the Music Venue Trust team for putting it all on - it's a vital forum for our sector. What a venue SAINT Hackney is too.

On Mon 16th August 1819, around 60,000 people came to St Peter's Field to challenge a voting system which only included the rich. Protestors were attacked by a cavalry leading to the loss of lives and hundreds of injuries. #peterloomassacre #humanrights #history #manchester
