New home for inclusive discos after Burnley bar Bees Knees announces its closure

Residents were left wondering what would happen to the inclusive discos held at a Burnley bar after it announced its closure this week.

Spring Into Action had been holding its Meet n Match events for adults with autism and learning disabilities at Bees Knees. But the organisation was left hunting for a new venue when the bar owners decided to shut the doors for good due to the demands of other business projects.

Luckily, Paparazzi Nightclub in Bull Street has stepped in to offer a new home for the events, starting with the Mexican Fiesta on Wednesday, July 16th from 6-30pm to 9-30pm.

Nadine Nuttall, Spring Into Action’s Event Coordinator, said: “As soon as we found out that Bees Knees had closed, I approached several venues in the area. All of them came back to us wanting to help and ensure our event continued. We are extremely grateful.”

Entry is £5 and free for carers.
