A group of South Asian women are gathered outdoors, many wearing colourful fabric masks. One woman holds a hand-written sign that says: “Community Care is Masking!” Text above the image reads: “On August 13, we contacted Take Back the Night London organizers to ask: • Will you adopt a ‘masks requested’ policy for this year’s event? • What accessibility training will be provided for staff/volunteers? • How will disability and survivorship be centred in programming? Our goal was simple: to ensure disabled and immunocompromised people aren’t left behind.” Logos for COVID-Safer London and London Reproductive Justice are in the corners.

3/7 We followed up on Aug 23. No reply.
Lead organizer returned on the 25th. Still silence.

We followed up again on Aug 28.
The response? “We don’t have a formal answer yet. Maybe next week.”

The event is less than 3 weeks away.
