Hibees Pride Nominated At Proud Scotland Awards

Hibernian supporters' group Hibees Pride have once again been nominated at the Proud Scotland Awards.

After being shortlisted in the Charity/Group Initiative category in 2023, Hibees Pride are this year up for the Sports and Recreation Award.

The prize recognises individuals, groups or teams that have taken action to directly impact and support the LGBTQI+ community in the field of sport.

The Proud Scotland Awards celebrate those who champion diversity and inclusion throughout Scotland by recognising the outstanding work and commitment of individuals and organisations within and supportive of the LGBTQI+ community in Scotland.

Formed in 2022, Hibees Pride have gone from strength to strength - honoured last year at both the Proud Scotland Awards and Football vs Homophobia Awards.

Since starting up, the supporter-led group have appeared on national TV and radio to discuss the inclusion of LGBTQI+ community sport, challenged various issues on homophobia in football and took part in the Edinburgh Pride festival.

Members of the group have also taken part in key activations for the Club, including our recent Season Ticket campaign.

Hibees Pride have worked closely with the Club to make Easter Road a welcome place for all football fans.

The Proud Scotland Awards this year take place in Edinburgh on Friday 31 May.
