Did Lucy find this to be the case in Oakham?But she also found a lot of support for her idea and was instantly contacted by the group's founder - Abii Lavery - who was also keen to start a Pride event in the town.
This included getting permission to hold some of the festivities within the grounds of Oakham Castle, organising food, drink and entertainment, overseeing health and safety and charting the route of the town's first Pride march which will take place at 11:45 BST.
