Christmas is a tough time of year for people at the best of times, but this year thousands of hospitality workers face a more uncertain Christmas than ever before.

Out of work for 8 months, people are already struggling. It is imperative hospitality businesses are given a chance to open and trade safely.

At Grogans, we want to welcome our staff back to work, and help ease the pressures facing them this Christmas.

We are pleading with Government to please allow us this chance.

We have adapted our business, we can trade safely.

Please share and Retweet

15/09/2020

Our request is simple:

Give us the same chance every other industry has had to run a safe environment.

Please share.

This coming Saturday 13th September, the incredible Orla Mellon has organised an exhibition in solidarity with our current situation.

This is an incredible gesture and we want to thank everyone involved.

The exhibition takes place all day Saturday so please come down and show your support.

28/08/2020

If one thing has been shown today - it's that they do not care.

This sums up the Government’s approach to their so called ‘package’.

Derisory lack of support - they certainly didn’t get the message

15/08/2020

Today marks 5 months since our industry was asked to close. Urgent support is needed from Government if our industry is to recover from this. Please Share.

04/08/2020

Our thoughts on this evenings announcement. This is utterly tragic.

15/07/2020

Following the government decision based on public health grounds, our reopening has been postponed until 10th August. We now await the publication of operational guidelines for reopening of wet pubs ASAP. This will allow us adequate time to prepare to reopen safely on this date.

This piece was done yesterday by Virgin Media News yesterday regarding the re-opening of pubs and the lack of clarity currently surrounding the situation.
