Torfaen Pride takes on Saturday the 1st June 2024. Club F.O.D is one of the few charities in the UK that focuses on preventing and reducing social isolation for LGBT+ people. Our CEO, Jamie Wake, was initially tasked with establishing dedicated LGBT+ dedicated nights, events and activities when he moved to South Wales from Reading where we had already established popular events. After he had moved, he started exploring the possibility of setting up a dedicated LGBT+ night and was repeatedly told that Torfaen needed its own pride event, and so Torfaen Pride was born. Not only is it our intention to build a successful pride event here in Torfaen, but also to build a sense of community and develop dedicated LGBT+ nights and activities across Torfaen for the LGBT+ community. We are also in the development stage of establishing an LGBT+ community hub for Torfaen and the surrounding valleys. Torfaen Pride festival will consist of a wide range of entertainment, fun fair, stalls and food and drink options. We are a free to enter festival that relies on sponsorship and good will, so please feel free to make a donation on the day to help keep Torfaen Pride free.
