Since the closure of the White Horse on West Wycombe Road in High Wycombe, numerous community members have felt the vacuum where a thriving entertainment hub used to be. As a regular patron of The White Horse, I miss the nights filled with performances by the delightful exotic dancers and the company of friendly customers. Many talented exotic dancers and lap dancers had their platform taken away, also limiting our choices for leisure in High Wycombe.

This is not just about the entertainment aspect for those who enjoyed the performances, it's also about making space for artists who crafted their routines with dedication and passion. Exotic and lap dancing are legitimate professions. In fact, according to a study by the University of Leeds [2016], these dancers have professional backgrounds in ballet and other dance forms, and their performances contribute significantly to local nightlife economies.

Girl on girl (lesbian) stage acts and girl on girl (lesbian) lap dances should also continue also. Girls / ladies (clients or customers) should still also have the option to watch and have lap dances with these female exotic dancers / lap dancers also.

The price should still stay at £1 per girl per stage act per customer for actual stage acts, and the right price for actual lap dances depending on the actual lap dances entail also.

Hence, we propose the establishment of a new pub in High Wycombe to fill the gap left by The White Horse's closure. Let's provide a space for these dancers to share their craft, for the patrons to enjoy their evenings, and for High Wycombe to recover its vibrant nightlife.

We call on local council leaders and business entrepreneurs to consider this proposal for the community's benefit. Regardless of whether The White Horse doors open again, we believe that High Wycombe deserves a venue that caters to adult entertainment, preserving a space for the art of exotic and lap dancing.
