The shortlist for this year’s LCR Pride Awards has been revealed!
The LCR Pride Awards celebrate the brightest stars, bravest and best of the region’s LGBT+ community and our allies. It’s an opportunity to come together and celebrate our achievements and thank those doing so much across Liverpool City Region.
Andi Herring, CEO of LCR Pride Foundation said: “It is always a tough job for our judges to shortlist these awards, let alone after the last few years, where our community and its activists were needed most. It’s reassuring that, especially at the minute, when things seem dark for those most marginalised that we have seen so many nominations for those working to support – particularly in healthcare, reducing hate crime and grassroots work.”
