The rainbow flag will be raised over West Dunbartonshire Council buildings to recognise pride month as part of the local authority’s annual flag raising ceremony.
Pride month, which is held every year to celebrate the LGBTI community through various global events, will begin on June 1, this year.
During the most recent West Dunbartonshire full council meeting, a motion was brought before elected members by SNP councillor Lauren Oxley which asked them to acknowledge that as well as being a month-long celebration, Pride is also an opportunity to peacefully protest and raise awareness of current issues that are facing the LGBTI community, both at home and abroad.
