Porty Pride have hosted their 3rd pride festival in the town of Portobello, Edinburgh’s seaside suburb. Jules sets off on an unplanned, day-long adventure to find out how this small regional event with LGBTQ+ organisers at its heart, is building a better community for everyone.



Content heads-ups:
