During the Second World War, it is estimated that 17 million *“undesirables”* were murdered by the Nazis which included many thousands of gay men and to a lesser extent gay women.

Brighton and Hove’s memorial event aims to remember those who suffered discrimination, celebrate diversity and encourage acceptance within our own community.
