Who this task will support
Colchester Pride
Colchester Pride started in 2017, founded by a small team of dedicated volunteers. Since then we have grown in size and scale, and are thrilled to have received support and funding from a number of organisations including, but not limited to, The OutHouse, the Lottery Community Fund, UNISON, East of England Co-op, Colchester Borough Homes, Colchester Council, Our Colchester and the Mercury Theatre.

Colchester Pride 2024 is an annual event celebrating the vibrant LGBTQ+ community of Colchester!

The main event will be held on Saturday 17th August 2024 at Colchester's premier arts venue Firstsite, with a mixture of indoor and outdoor activities. For more information visit: https://www.colchesterpride.org/the-main-event

The volunteer application is on the Colchester Pride Website: https://www.colchesterpride.org/volunteers

For the past few years we have volunteered at this event, mainly litter picking and helping with ticket sales. It is always great fun and such a great organsation to support! Details/timings to follow but sign up if you are interested in being there for at least some of the day!

Hi Tiffany did you email the pride volunteers and organise what you are doing with them? I emailed a while ago with the info. If not then you could still go along as a paying guest of course! Think Tav was sharing the info for anyone interested in going along to Pride :)
