England Rugby Ben Cohen Pride House Ambassador
26 January 2012
England Rugby champion Ben Cohen MBE will be joining the impressive line-up of Ambassadors for Pride House London, opening this summer during the Olympic Games.
A total of 10 high-profile individuals from around the world with strong connections to the LGBT community have shown their support for Pride House.
Situated in the heart of Clapham Common, Pride House London will be one of the most attractive open-air venues offering an unbeatable atmosphere, superb hospitality, art exhibitions, spectacular live music performances and televised broadcasts of the Games. As London's hub of diversity and inclusion, Pride House will provide a magnificent backdrop for activities and celebrations this summer with an expected 250,000 visitors over eighteen days.
Cohen’s involvement with anti-bullying programs and career in professional rugby make him an ideal community leader to partner with Pride House. The Ben Cohen Stand Up Foundation supports organizations, programs and people that advance equality for the LGBT community and help for at-risk youth by standing up against bullying.
