Accessibility at Pride is very important to us and this year we are very grateful to UWE Bristol for becoming our Access Partner and supporting some of our improvement work. We also recognise ensuring an accessible event that is fun and engaging for all is not always about putting lots of money into things.
With a mixture of in-person and online events this year we’ve tried to ensure that the venues we’re using and the shows we putting on are accessible for everyone. If you have any questions please get in touch with us at info@bristolpride.co.uk, wether it’s to tell us what we need to do to support you, how we can make your Pride a better experience, feedback on the events or to volunteer to help us with this then we want to hear from you.
This page will tell you what measures we have in place and answer some general questions.
