Makes to celebrate Pride
Published on 11 May 2022 2 min readEvery year during the month of June the LGBTQ+ community come together to celebrate Pride – a community-wide, global celebration of diversity, acceptance and the rich history of LGBTQ+ people; and a time to raise political awareness of current issues facing the community.
