We’re reaching out to local LGBT charities to see how we can support fundraising with the collapse of Pride.
If there’s anyone in the #McrGayVillage Business Association who could reach out or someone can put us in touch we’d like to talk and coordinate ♥️

As it’s coming to the end of #TransgenderAwarenessWeek it seems a good time to restate that we support our trans siblings.
In 2021 we had 1500 people in the streets of Manchester shouting trans rights are human rights.
Same for the protest in 2026. 🏳️⚧️

The EHRC has sent a new draft Code of Practice which would lead to the exclusion of trans people from public life.
The decision now is up to this government, will they sign a trans bathroom ban in secret?

51% of people leave a sexual health appointment without having an HIV test.
Our Chief Executive Richard Angell spoke at the House of Commons' Women and Equalities Committee recently.
He shared how the pressure being put on sexual health services is impacting what the services are able to provide.

We got you!
Oh wow who could have guessed that the corporate Manchester Pride would have collapsed under the weight of it's own hubris - maybe we can have more pride events there that don't lock off the whole of the gay village behind exorbitant pricing....
Community events always have our backs though

We did it in 2021 and others have organised protests as well. The community is very capable of organising a pride protest without Manchester Pride and without corporate sponsors.
We’ll need your help and support for a massive turnout in 2026!

Maybe now Manchester Pride can go back to being a celebration of queerness and not a three-day music festival in a car park

It’s almost like the entire community warned them 🤷♂️
When we say that pride events must go back to their roots and serve the community first and foremost, not prioritise hetero pop stars from the 90s and groups of straight girls on a jolly; The Manchester Pride debacle is a prime example.
Amateurs...
It always ends up this way when organisers get too big for their boots and Pride starts to be a professional music festival with some gays stuck on the end.
Hopefully the bars will do their own thing next year and it'll be all the better for it.
Thoughts, @jasonreiduk.bsky.social ?
