Throughout the summer local Pride events like parades, festivals and community celebrations are an opportunity for the LGBT+ community and their allies to come together, be visible and celebrate LGBT+ identity, culture and history.
This year RCM staff, reps and members are attending a number of Pride celebrations across the UK. As a trade union, equity and equality is at the heart of what we do. If you’d like to come with us and fly the Pride flag with us just send the relevant staff member an email and sign up to join us!
