The One Fifty Marchers follows Frazer & JD's journey to track down the 150 men and women who took part in the first LGBTQ+ march on Highbury Fields, London, on November 27th, 1970. This march took place to protest the way in which gay people were being treated and was the spark which began the UK gay rights movement. This podcast is a celebration of the original marchers, a number of which we will speak with throughout, and the work they did in making LGBTQ+ rights move forward in the United Kingdom. The podcast includes interviews with current LGBTQ+ campaigners in the United Kingdom about the brilliant work they are doing to support the community.

Learned!

I'm so glad I joined this journey! I learned a lot, and such a novel idea to trace back and find people now. Loved listening whilst pottering around the house - found it super calming thinking back on times I wasn't around for, but that played such a big part in lives today.

A fascinating slice of UK history delivered in a really engaging way... I’m impatiently waiting for the next episode!

Fascinating And Vital Story

Frazer and JD have done a brilliant job highlighting some pioneers that anyone concerned with equal rights would be thankful. They fought to get us where we are today. Our job is to keep the baton passing. Thank you both for this work!
