Small regional town of Queensland celebrates first LGBTIQ+ Pride

Throughout June, the world celebrated the LGBTIQ+ Pride, and Australia is not the exception.

While metro areas like Sydney and Melbourne are well known to accept the LGBTIQ+ community, some regional areas don’t have this luxury, and it’s more challenging because of the discrimination the community faces.

This month, the Queensland town of Gympie celebrated its first Pride.
