We Make Events - Lincolnshire

The official page for the #WeMakeEvents Lincolnshire campaign. Follow us and help #StandasONE to get our industry’s voice heard through social media!

The response to #WeMakeEvents has been fantastic so far, including the collective Day of Action on 11th August with creative expressions across the country, including over 700 buildings lit up in red and other activities that culminated with 4,000 socially distanced event professionals lining bridges and the bankside of the Thames, expressing their need for support with the red alert theme. The su

ccess of this initial activity has led to a global movement, with organisations from around the world coming together in a spirit of mutual support and solidarity. This next stage in the campaign will be known as ‘Stand as One’ –taken from the newly released song and now campaign anthem, written and performed by Joe Bygraves, who has generously agreed to donate 25% of the money made from the track to #MakeItBlue UK to be distributed to relevant mental health organisations. Further action is planned to call for financial support to be extended for the freelancers and companies in this sector until they can safely return to work. The group will be announcing a number of creative activations to be held throughout the month, leading up to a #WeMakeEvents Global day of creative action on 30th September, with countries from New Zealand to Canada and across Europe joining in. More details to follow. Today, the collective is calling on as many individuals who normally work in live events to come together and take part in Stand as One. To kick this off, the group has put together the following incentives:
1. Write to your MP (details in the WhatsApp Group)
2. Share #WeMakeEvents videos on social media
3. Call someone you know

We’d like to say thanks again for everyone’s support and patience so far. It truly is appreciated. We have to keep building momentum and show just how devastating the obliteration of the live events industry in this country would be, not just to us, but to everyone. We need as many people as possible to get involved, so please reach out and take part in a campaign and let us all Stand as One together.

But we have one final request to see if we have any drone operators in the area who would be willing to take some footage on the night? If you are willing or know someone who may be please message the group and we'll give you all the details!

Thanks
