Pride In London Mission
As we celebrate Pride In London it’s worth remembering why we’re doing it. We’re not only having a fun day out …
The Pride In London mission statement
- Be fully inclusive of all sections of the LGBT+ community, free at the point of access
- Provide a celebration of LGBT+ life and a platform to continue the fight for equality and to challenge prejudice
- Establish Pride in London on a sustainable footing and grow the festival over time to serve better the needs of London’s LGBT+ community and promote London as a beacon to the world
“We aim to be transparent as far as possible. That’s why we hold regular open meetings to report on Pride and gather feedback. We are also committed to engaging with residents, businesses and other groups who are involved in or affected by Pride.” – Pride In London
