Launched in November 2019, the Bourne Free Community Fund provides financial assistance to projects and organisations which support the local LGBTQIA+ community. The fund had a start-up amount derived from previous donations but will be primarily funded by a percentage of proceeds from all Bourne Free events and any other donations it is able to attract. This way, the supporters of Bourne Free can directly contribute to and assist projects within our local community. So far, Bourne Free has donated in excess of £25k to groups and organisations that are improving the lives of the LGBTQIA+ community within our local area.

The Bourne Free Community Fund has its own independent panel, separate from the Bourne Free trustees, to decide what projects and organisations should be supported. A panel member is expected to attend quarterly meetings and the AGM. A panel member should have an interest in diversity and inclusion in Dorset and be passionate about supporting local projects that improve the wider community in some aspect. No specific skills are needed, we are just looking for people with passion as full training and support will be provided. To show interest in becoming a panel member, or to ask further questions, please contact info@bournefree.co.uk.

Everyone here at Bourne Free, every trustee (past and present), every team leader, volunteer, customer and patron on our scene would like to wish Billy Clarke the best of luck in his new endeavor as he leaves Bournemouth after 4 decades of service.
Billy has been an invaluable part of our scene, supporting Bourne free as the face of Over The Rainbow, our easy to access, always accommodating sexual health service. He not only provided sexual health screening, with ground breaking firsts, such as on the spot HIV testing and PREP (first in country to be rolled out at a pride event) but an incredible array of added support for our community, our trans youth and various events throughout every year.
We shall miss him incredible amounts, but we wish him every success in his new path.
Thank you for everything Billy, where would we all be without you!!’

Much love and here’s to your many new accomplishments, we are forever in your debt.

You can say your goodbyes in person at DYMK this Friday from 6pm, where the scene will wave the flag of gratitude to this behemoth of Bournemouth’s gay scene.
