Hello All,
Recently I have taken Amber, my female alter-ego, out on the town for the first time. It was super exciting and I've been out twice more since. Reaction from the public has been largely really positive. However, I keep coming up against bouncers who are initially hesitant to let me in. Although I haven't been refused entry, I nearly once was. I wonder if anyone knows what rights I have as a CD with regard to bars and clubs in the UK. Although I know the Equality Act 2010 should protect me in most situations, nightclubs etc often have a ROAR - Right of Admission Refused, and don't have to provide specifics on why an individual has been excluded. Are they allowed to do that by law? I booked tickets for an Ibiza party at a local nightclub in August and emailed them in advance to check their CD entry policy. Thankfully, they are open-minded enough for Amber not be an issue but it'd be much more convenient if I knew my rights in the first place.
Hope you can help.
Amber
