"To create change, you need to be visible and be part of that change."

Earlier today the incredible trans icon Buck Angel, at the request of Liberate's Hugo, took the time to record and post a video about CI Pride and encourage his fans to come along and support Pride! We're very happy and grateful - thankyou Buck (and Hugo!)

On the 3rd of September Liberate's Lauren McSwiggan, along with Wynter Tyson and Nic de Lisle, spoke to BBC Radio Guernsey's Ollie Guillou about LGBTQ representation and diversity in film & about Liberate's upcoming CI Pride film nights: Wednesday 14th September - 52 Tuesdays Thursday 15th September - Cabaret

There are only 4 weeks to go until the start of Channel Islands Pride week - and Guernsey’s first ever Pride parade! We can’t wait!

CI Pride week officially starts on Saturday 10th September - but we have an extra special pre-party on Friday 9th! Kitty Brucknell performed a Broadway medley in her first act at this year's Exhibitionist Ball and was so good that we've decided to bring her back for a full night of Broadway songs. Tickets are limited so make sure you get yours before they all go!

The Channel Islands Pride giant rainbow flag has arrived - thankyou so much to everyone who donated (your names will soon be embroidered on the flag!) We took it out for a test run this morning and it looks fantastic - if a little difficult to pack up!

Thankyou so much to everyone who came to our Channel Islands Pride fundraiser and summer mixer BBQ last night! It was fantastic to see the island’s LGBTQ community growing closer and to watch the diverse groups of people having fun. The event included a small tribute (pictured) to the people who were tragically killed in the recent Orlando shootings.
