Fighting With Pride, the LGBT Military Charity, on behalf of HM Armed Forces and funded through a government grant, are looking to appoint an artist to deliver a public memorial to be installed at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire.
This is to commemorate the service and sacrifice of the LGBT Armed Forces community and to recognise the hidden history of LBGT Service in HM Armed Forces.
The sum allocated is £230,000, and the timeline is:
(1) Application form by 19 November 2024
(2) Shortlist by early December
(3) Interview in early January 2025
(4) Delivery by 22 August 2025
The compressed timeline is imperative to ensure completion during the 25th anniversary year of the lifting of the ban on LGBT military service.
