Nothing has really happened until it has been recorded
Pride in Our Past was born from the realisation that Plymouth's LGBT community has people within it who have seen the world change; from a place where homosexuality could be regarded as criminal or a mental disorder into the more tolerant society of today. The aim of the project is to document and archive that shift in our past while considering where Plymouth is today . . . and what's next for our community and the city's community as a whole. Today will be the history of tomorrow so lets take this opportunity to make our voices count.
If so, your story can be just as relevant and interesting as we build up a picture of life in Plymouth.
This is an amazing project – having worked for the minister responsible for taking the repeal of section 28 through parliament I know just how important these critical events can be and what a difference they make. Good luck to all those bringing the archive together and I cant wait to see the finished product

Memories, Photo's and Memorabilia
Pictured is the site of the infamous Mr. Harry's gay club on Cliff Road, West Hoe, Plymouth. We would love to hear from you if you have any memories or photos of the club.
Do you remember the Lockyer Tavern (formerly the Lockyer Hotel) or the Gypsy Moth IV (now the Yard Arm).
We will be holding a series of informal drop ins in relaxed comfortable spaces in the city where you can meet with Pride in Our Past volunteers to find out more about the project and share your memories. Bring any memorabilia which you may have - T-shirts, Badges, Photo's, or correspondence from the past.
