Coventry Pride

Coventry Pride (Charity No. 1164035) became a registered Charity in October 2015, following the success of Coventrys first Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Trans Pride in June 2015. Following on from becoming a charity, Coventry Pride has gone from strength to strength, organising the commemoration for the first time in Coventry of Transgender Day of Remembrance, the celebration of LGBT History month with four well talks and discussions in February. Coventry Pride has also organised several community events including the Not-Valentines Day Shindig, and several Love Music Hate Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia music gigs at local independent music venue the Tin Angel. Coventry Prides mission includes the promotion of equality and diversity for the public benefit by organising an annual lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans pride event and other events including but not limited to the commemoration of International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHOT), LGBT History month, Transgender Day of Remembrance, Coming Out day and World Aids day. The charity depends entirely on volunteers, most of who identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Trans themselves. Coventry held its first Pride festival in 2015, which drew in over 6000 attendees and was hailed as a success, a mark of this success was being nominated as Best Live event 2015 in the Coventry Telegraph peoples choice awards, Coventry pride has also been nominated as Community organisation LGBT in the national diversity awards voting is still open for the national diversity awards.
