On Friday 17 May, we recognise IDAHOBIT, also known as International Day Against LGBTQIA+ Discrimination.

Join us for a film screening of Pride at Lido Cinemas. Pride is an uplifting movie about LGBTQIA+ people from London coming together to support a community of Welsh miners during the miners’ strike in 1984.

This is a free event, but places are limited and bookings are essential.

This film screening will feature open captions for all attendees.
