Pride ER… Starts 23rd Sept 2020

Pride ER Week

We will be celebrating Pride ER Week to promote positivity towards the LGBTI community during the period from 23rd September to 3th October 2020 and want you to join us! There are lots of celebrations and ways to get involved.

What is Pride? LGBTI Pride celebrates sexual diversity and gender variance. It aims to end discrimination and violence towards lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people, promoting their self-affirmation, dignity, rights, and their visibility as a social group.

Light it Up!

Virtual Pride March

A virtual Pride ER march will take place on 3rd October. It will begin at Barrhead Railway Station, progressing along Main Street and ending at the Cowan Park bandstand. As we are in the midst of Covid-19 restrictions, we would encourage members of the public to walk the route at a suitable time to them, while maintaning the current restrictions at all times.
