Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, AGE Concern Eastbourne have cancelled all their social activities at the Venton Centre. As a consequence there will not be any Eastbourne Rainbow afternoon meetings or coffee mornings until it is deemed safe for the Centre to re-open. We will keep you informed when there are any changes to this situation.

 The British Film Institute have on their website a selection of free LGBT films to view. 

The web address is: https://player.bfi.org.uk/free/collection/lgbt-britain

I have not made this a direct link as some people do not like to click on links directly at the moment. So please type the address into your browser yourself.

Hope you enjoy the films

In the meantime take care and stay safe
