Fighting With Pride, the military charity which supports the health and wellbeing of LGBTQ+ veterans, has announced the launch of a survey asking for your views on an LGBT Armed Forces Community Memorial.
A community-led and inspired memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum would be funded by the government and was one of the key recommendations in the Etherton Report, which examined the experiences of armed forces personnel perceived to be LGBTQ between 1967-2000.
Fighting With Pride said: “This is your opportunity to make your voice heard and to tell us what you would like to see in the memorial.
”Whilst your personal ideas might not be fully incorporated, rest assured that all responses will be considered when the design brief is drawn-up. More details can be found on the Reparations tab on our website.”
Complete the survey HERE. You can send it anonymously or fill in your details if you prefer to.
