It's vital that 'marginalised' communities have a voice, says Isle of Pride

It's 'vital' that 'marginalised' communities have a voice and representation on Island.

That's according to local charity Isle of Pride, following its much-awaited return earlier this month. 

It says now more than ever, the LGBTQ+ community must stand together and hopes IOM Pride can be that voice for those on Manx shores.

The charity faced closure in 2022 but in September last year announced a new board of trustees and directors.

As a result, organisers say a 'Pride on the Quay' event will take place on Saturday August 30 Douglas and there'll be a huge Pride event next year.
