Statement from Michael Kill, CEO of the Night Time Industries Association, on Amy Lamé’s Resignation as London Night Czar
“During Amy’s eight-year tenure, while there has been criticism, several achievements must be recognised. Her work on women’s safety at night, and the establishment of enterprise zones, have been hugely beneficial for the sector.”
“The role of Night Czar has always been crucial, but also an enormous challenge, especially during one of the toughest trading periods for the night-time economy. Representing such a vast market in a capital city like London is no easy task. I wish Amy well in her future endeavours.”
“With the formation of the new Night Taskforce, I am optimistic that we are entering a new era. We now have the chance to rebuild London’s nightlife with a fresh perspective and stronger foundations.”
“London has an incredible variety of nightlife, supported by outstanding operators and entrepreneurs. It’s time to remind everyone that the capital is one of the world’s leading night-time economies. I look forward to collaborating with the Mayor of London and other partners to rebuild a thriving future strategy.”
