What a wonderful way to see out #LGBTplusHM25 by unveiling our latest #RainbowPlaque dedicated to Jackie Forster.
It was a really special afternoon.
With Equality & Diversity coming under attack, this project feels all the more vital.

Thank you to all who came along to remember Jody Dobrowski at the Clapham Common bandstand last night.
It was a very moving event and I’m so thankful to both the Clapham & LGBTQ+ Community for coming together to stand united against hate.
