It is with a very heavy heart that we have to share that Kidderminster Pride will not be going ahead this year.
Over the past few years, the event has only been possible thanks to the incredible support of local businesses, donations, volunteers, local council funding, and a huge amount of personal financial support from Ben, alongside the team at The Cavalier.
Unfortunately, the running costs of putting on an event like this are significant, and this year the funding and support needed has been almost impossible to secure. Without the council funding, Ben is sadly unable to personally cover the full cost of the event.
We have had the most amazing few years celebrating Pride in Kidderminster, and we are so grateful to everyone who has supported us, volunteered, donated, attended, and helped create such a special atmosphere for our community.
This does not mean Pride is disappearing completely. We are currently planning something on a smaller scale, so please keep your eyes peeled for updates.
We are truly sorry to disappoint anyone who was looking forward to this year’s event, but thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with us and supporting Kidderminster Pride over the years.
With love,
The Kidderminster Pride Team 🏳️🌈
