Ma ke ʻano he kanaka, ua hana mākou iā mākou iho no ka lōʻihi loa - ʻo ka manawa kēia no ka ʻoihana ponoʻī e ʻike i ko mākou waiwai a mālama i kā mākou pono. Ua hōʻike mai ʻo PROUD London iaʻu i nā hōkele a me nā ʻoihana huakaʻi i mākaukau e kū a hoʻomaopopo i ko mākou honua - a ʻaʻole nā mea a pau i hele mai LGBTQ + - ʻo ia kaʻu e haʻaheo ai.
