London 2012 have become the first Olympics and Paralympics to launch a special pin badge aimed at the gay community.
The first "Pride Pin Badge" was presented to former Welsh rugby star Gareth Thomas, who recently announced that he was gay, at a special ceremony at the London 2012 headquarters in Canary Wharf attended by Stephen Frost, the head of diversity and inclusion for LOCOG.
There are two badges - one for the Olympics and one for the Paralympics - which combines the London 2012 logos with a rainbow flag, which is used to represent gay pride.
The pins will cost £5 each.
