June is Pride Month!

Pride Rainbow Flag

The month of June was chosen for LGBT Pride Month to commemorate the Stonewall riots, which occurred at the end of June 1969. As a result, many pride events are held during this month to recognize the impact LGBT people have had in the world.

There are pride festivals taking place throughout the Summer across the South West including:
