Kayla Hanna from south Belfast had her bottle of Lucozade confiscated by bouncers as she made her way to see the Red Hot Chilli Peppers play, the Belfast Telegraph reports.

Ms Hanna had explained that she had Type 1 diabetes.

“I carry Lucozade with me at all times as it gives me the glucose I need if my blood sugar levels go down,” she said.

“When the security guard told me I couldn’t bring the bottle in I told her of my condition and showed her the tattoos on my wrist which indicate I have diabetes.”

However, despite showing the guard her insulin pack and diabetes equipment, she was still refused admission with her bottle.

“She consulted with another guard and they insisted that they had a strict policy and they would not allow me to bring the drink inside,” she added.

After the concert she contacted the Equality Commission, which helped her bring a case against Eventsec Ltd on the basis it breached disability legislation.

The case was heard last month at Belfast County Court and has now been made public.
