GEORGE NEWS - The Pride Parade (walk) hosted by George Municipality and S.H.E is an initiative to help raise awareness within our communities, as well as friends, families and supporters for the LGBTIQA++ community in celebration of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) social and self-acceptance, achievements, legal rights, and pride!
For many within the LGBTIQA++ community, in particular those who are still working through their identity – the experience can involve a whirlwind of emotions and thoughts as they try to get to grips with who they are as individuals.
The festive parade provides an opportunity to wave flags, together as a group - and to celebrate equality and diversity for the Queer family.
The Goal of the gathering:
To improve the health, safety and well-being of Lesbians, Gay , Bisexual and Transgender people. As they experience many specific health-related challenges and disparities.
Activities that will take place :
- Information Stalls
- Colour Splash
- Public Speakers
- Handover of Memorandum to SAPS
- Performance
We invite all members of the Queer community and those who support the LGBTIQA+ Community, to join us.
