Remembrance Day Service 2026

Eastbourne

Eastbourne Rainbow was honored to be invited to take part in the

Remembrance Day service

at the "Memorial" Eastbourne on Sunday 8th September 2026.

 

To be able to lay a wreath in memory of all our LGBTQ+ friends and colleagues who served 

in the armed forces, during the various conflicts over the years,

who are no longer with us, was a very moving experience

Hundreds of people attended the service on a bright sunny November morning ensuring,

"We will remember them"

Let's talk about Queer Migrants

Research Project at Loughborough University.

We have received a request from a MSc Social Science Research Student at Loughborough University

Looking for LGBTQ+ and women identifying migrants living outside of a major ‘urban hub’ (eg. London, Brighton, Manchester) to take part in an interview discussing migration journey and community building.

This project has ethical approval from Loughborough University. 

Findings from this research will be valuable insight into the experiences of a marginalised group (LGBTQ+ migrant women), also shifting focus away from large cities and towards the needs of queer people in different areas in the UK. 

If interested please email c.gildenhuys-21@student.lboro.ac.uk
