Take a trip on Foxtrot 8

This May, 1964 Falklands Landing Craft Foxtrot 8 was wrapped in a powerful rainbow design by artist Angela Chick - becoming a floating tribute to LGBTQ+ service personnel, past and present.  In partnership with Fighting with Pride, this temporary artwork honours those who served in silence and celebrates a legacy of inclusion.
