It takes time to grow, and you probably won’t realise it but you are not the same person that walked into this room.

Over the first few months of 2025, The Kite Trust has been collecting and curating items connected to LGBTQ+ history from across the county.

This exhibition tells just a few of the many stories from 50 years of queer history across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. From the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality in 1967, through to the expansion of local Pride events across the county in the 2020s, join us to explore the growth of the local LGBTQ+ community over the last half century.
