Invite by the Prime Minister to the Pride Reception at 10 Downing Street
So when we received an email from ‘Downing Street’ we were slightly perplexed & definitely thought that someone was pulling our leg or it was spam.
So we called round every Government department until we got to the right one & when we explained the email we received, the woman laughed & said it was a real invite & we had been invited by request of the Prime Minister to attend Downing Street for the annual Pride Reception.
Childcare was an issue, so I (Laura-Rose) attended alone (luckily knew a few faces there!) & it was an amazing experience.
I got to meet some really educated & influential people within Government & within the community.
Unfortunately the Prime Minister was held up in Brussels due to Brexit talks which was disappointing-I had so much I wanted to ask her! But Penny Mordaunt held the crowd & it was an incredible evening.
