**THE campaign will** also be raising funds to help create the permanent landmark to celebrate 50 years since the Stonewall Riots,

Mr Silver says that a permanent *Rainbow Crossing* on St James Street in Kemp Town would be the perfect location for such a landmark and feels following the installation of the recent *Rainbow Crossing* in Lambeth in London on August 16, 2019, it is legally possible to do so.

**Mr Silver, said:** *“Kemp Town is historically and unofficially the LGBT+ area in Brighton and Hove and would be the perfect location for such an important historical milestone to be celebrated with a visual piece of art, representing the past struggles the LGBT+ communities have had, where we are today, and a statement to the future as to how there is still work to do – as well as celebrating diversity in our city of Brighton and Hove that many LGBT+ people now call home.*

*“We understand that the cost of this should not come from the public purse. Therefore, we are asking for donations from the LGBT+ communities and local business in Brighton and further afield to help fund the project.*

*“The work starts now. Let’s see what we can do together to create a permanent landmark marking 50 years since the Stonewall Riots and celebrate the great diversity in Brighton and Hove that we cherish and appreciate, creating a symbol for the city to inspire to and achieve more for a world of equality.”*

Marc has started a Go Fund Me page *Brighton Rainbow Crossing* and has a Facebook page also at *Brighton Rainbow Crossing* to raise funds and awareness of the campaign.
