One Love (Croydon)
One Love was the branding chosen for Croydon's IDAHO event on 17 May 2014. It was an expanded version of the 2013 event, and featured stalls for eight churches and eight LGBT groups in Croydon's main pedestrianised shopping street. The stalls were colour coded blue for churches and yellow /rainbow for LGBT groups. Above each pair of stalls was a banner, held up by helium balloons, with the name of a church on one side and an LGBT organisation on the other. Additional banners were hung on six posts around the area.[1]
The eight LGBT groups were:
- CAGS – Croydon Area Gay Society
- Croydon Trans Group
- FFLAG – Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays
- The Out and Proud Diamond Group
- The Rainbow Reading Group
- Rainbows Across Borders
- The Bridge – Croydon’s LGBT youth group
- Aurora – Croydon’s LGBT police consultation group[2]
Additionally Quest was included, but as one of the eight "churches" (representing LGBT Catholics), and the Friends of Dorothy Society rang a quarter peal at Croydon Minster.[2]
