Proud2Be, recently nominated for a National Diversity Award, was launched in June 2011, when gay twin brothers Jon and Mat Price, recorded a short video where they explained how they were both “proud to be gay”.

Since then a number of high profile public figures have contributed to the campaign including popular comedian, actor, writer, presenter, and activist Stephen Fry who in his own words “is happy to be counted as a proud supporter of Proud2Be at every turn”.

As well as running the campaign, Proud2Be hold a number of social events in South Devon including an adult social group, craft days, a youth group and the annual community event Totnes Pride.

About the upcoming event, Jon said: “The discos are a great opportunity for the community to get together, for a fun night out in a safe and friendly environment.”
