Eropride 1992 remembered

“I am delighted to invite you to this year’s LGBTQ+ history month. The Covid Pandemic has had a significant impact on the LGBTQ+ community, drawing attention to inequalities and discrimination. Lambeth Libraries have co-ordinated this programme to give an insight into LGBTQ+ history, giving us all the opportunity to understand and challenge discrimination and promote equality, diversity and inclusion. The vibrancy of Lambeth is very well reflected in the diversity of our communities and our commitment to equality. I hope you will join us.”
