“I think society in Scotland is more accepting of the LGBT community than a lot of other places and we want to give people recognition for that.  We are delighted with the wide spectrum of nominees from all over Scotland – it’s also encouraging to see places like Orkney making a stance” he said.

 

The winners will be announced at a glittering ceremony celebrating the country’s LGBT champions on Saturday, June 1 at the Hilton Hotel, Glasgow.
