Fighting With Pride fundraiser at Royal Vauxhall Tavern with Queera Lynn and Colin Thackery
The Royal Vauxhall Tavern will be hosting a night to remember on Thursday, 16 October with Queera Lynn, Britain's one and only wartime drag queen, and the amazing voice of Colin Thackery, Chelsea pensioner, Korean War Veteran and star of Britain's Got Talent, both raising funds for armed forces' LGBTQ+ charity, Fighting With Pride.
Fighting With Pride supports the health and wellbeing of LGBTQ+ veterans, service personnel and their families, in particular those most impacted by the ban on LGBTQ+ personnel serving in the armed forces.

Despite the passing of over 20 years since the ‘gay ban’ was finally lifted, no attempt has been made to support the recovery of the thousands of LGBTQ+ service personnel dismissed or forced from service prior to 2000. Fighting with Pride works to connect service charities and organisations to those LGBTQ+ veterans who have been left behind.
