Pride for LGBTQIA+
Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities understand what it is like to be marginalised for who they are. We can therefore stand in solidarity with our LGBTQIA+ friends, colleagues, supporters and even family members, without whom our lives would never be the same. Show your support by wearing the rainbow this June.
