Closed Allow shisha bars to operate in Tiers 1 & 2

Closed on

Shisha bars should be allowed to reopen

Shisha bars in the UK can no longer operate in any of the tiered areas. They have been put in the same category as nightclubs, rather than bars & restaurants which have been allowed to reopen.

There are thousands of Shisha bars in the country, all having financial struggles & unsure when they can reopen. The recent closure of bars may be the nail in the coffin for many, most which are small family run businesses

The UK government must review & reverse this decision to avoid any more impact on people’s financial statuses as well as the affect it has on ones mental health to those who do not typically go to pubs or restaurants.

Shisha bars should reopen with ‘strict rules’ in place.
