Your Pride In London
Following 2022’s 50th anniversary, Pride in London is building out its volunteer team as we look forward to our next 50 years.
Pride in London has a renewed sense of purpose to highlight the challenges still facing the LGBT+ community today despite our community’s progress. We are run by a group of volunteers who are passionate about equality and diversity and are drawn from all walks of life. Pride aims to raise awareness of LGBT+ issues and campaign for the freedoms that will allow all of our community to live their lives on a genuinely equal footing.
Around 150 people volunteer year-round to help us deliver what has become a world-class Pride. It is our intention for Pride in London to best represent all parts of our community.
We continue to actively encourage applications from diverse backgrounds, such as women, people of colour, marginalised or minority communities and faith groups, and those from the trans and non-binary communities.
