We want to congratulate Dewi Emberton, who was recognized by Trans In The City () as their 2025 Trans Community Champion Student winner! We are incredibly proud of all he has accomplished.

Alas, we also have some bittersweet news. Some of you may know that Dewi started an organization working with transgender people in rural communities (). He has therefore decided to step down as directory of TPM at this time, to focus on providing much needed support to underrepresented communities, and we wish him the very best in his future endeavors. He has done a terrific job supporting Trans Pride Manchester during this transitional period for the organization itself, and he'll be missed as a colleague and a friend. Best of luck, Dewi!

The liquidation of Manchester Pride marks the end of an era, one defined as much by corporate influence as by community resistance. For too long, Pride in our city drifted away from its grassroots history, becoming a brand rather than a movement.

Manchester’s LGBTQIA+ community deserves better. We deserve Pride that is accountable to the people who built it, not to sponsors, not to shareholders, but to us.

Now is the time to come together for local groups, organisers, and individuals to work together on developing a sustainable, community centred future for pride movements in our city. If you have ideas for the future of Manchester’s Pride movement, want to collaborate with Trans Pride Manchester, or simply wish to connect and reflect, we’d love to hear from you.

The end of Manchester Pride is by no means the end of Pride in Manchester. It’s our opportunity to reclaim it.

In solidarity and strength,
Trans Pride Manchester

🏳️‍⚧️ Protest March Route Update 🏳️‍⚧️

Hi everyone we’re really looking forward to marching with you TOMORROW!!!!

We’re really sorry for the short notice, but due to unexpected city works, we’ve had to slightly change the starting point of the route.

🟣 We’ll now be meeting at All Saints Park (just opposite The Proud Place) for speeches and the beginning of the march.

🟡 For those joining the accessible or shorter route, the new meeting point is Bridgewater Hall, at the junction of Albion St, Lower Mosley St & Great Bridgewater St. Look out for two directors in pink hi-vis and a tall trans flag to gather with.

🏁 We are still ending the march at Vimto Park as planned.

Thanks for your flexibility and understanding we can’t wait to come together in solidarity this weekend!
