This weekend sees Blackpool's annual Pride event taking place as part of the Gay Pride Festival season which is well under way. These are a wonderful testament to how diverse our society is and the CWU LGBT members have always played an active part in participating on these wonderful occasions. Indeed it is not something exclusively for LGBT people as anyone who appreciates diversity will be interested in going along.
Every single Pride Event taking place will be a fantastic day out for the whole family. The more people who go along and enjoy the proceedings that will be taking place the more the general tolerance levels of society will be increased. The LGBT community still face a huge amount of discrimination and general mis-understanding and PRIDE is an opportunity for these misgivings to be put right.
The CWU's LGBTAC will be present at many of the Pride Festivals and the full list of the events can be viewed by clicking here.
