A double gin and lemonade and the sound of 70’s music is how Valerie Cullen loves to spend her weekends.
While its a combination that can be found in the majority of Liverpool’s bars and nightclubs, the 70-year-old - more affectionately known as Val by those on “the scene” - opts to spend her nights in the city’s LGBTQ+ venues.
The retired secretary, who lives in Wallasey, prefers venues located in the Pride Quarter as she “feels safer, more at ease, and for the most part treated with more respect". Val’s weekend antics wouldn’t be complete without a trip to her favourite bar, The Poste House, found on Cumberland Street, with her son John.
