A minute’s reflection will take place during Pride in London in Trafalgar Square, which takes place on 25 June.
Chair of Pride in London Michael Salter-Church said: “Our hearts go out to all the families and friends of those who lost their lives in Orlando. It was a senseless attack, where it appears people were targeted for their sexuality."
"The horrific events in Orlando highlight that the campaign for respect and equality must go on."
“In less than two weeks time, tens of thousands of people from all over the world will be coming to Pride in London. The horrific events in Orlando highlight that the campaign for respect and equality must go on within communities across the globe."
"On June 25th, together, we will honour the people who lost their lives, and stand united in a moment of solidarity, peace and remembrance."
"This has happened before in our own city. It was only in 1999 that communities in Brixton, the East End and in Soho, at the Admiral Duncan, were targeted with lives lost and changed forever."
"It's vital this horrific attack is not used to drive a wedge between communities here in the UK. We must all focus on what binds us rather than what separates us and stand in unity."
