We would like to see a community events calendar that promotes activities and social events. We'd let you know when Pride Week is, when Northern Pride - We're Out and About meets, and all other gatherings. Beyond this, we'd like to create a directory for LGBT+ friendly businesses that can be used by tourists and locals alike. We'd also create directories to LGBT+ friendly and related health services.
