Happy Pride Month

Happy Pride Month!

Throughout the month we will be celebrating Pride so keep an eye out on our socials and blogs as we will be sharing and highlighting what's going on across the Black Country throughout June and how we are celebrating this year at the college!

Over the years, Pride Month has expanded to encompass a wide range of activities, including art exhibitions, panel discussions, film screenings, and concerts. These events provide spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals to express themselves freely, share their stories, and create visibility for their experiences.

Last month tens of thousands made their way into Birmingham City Centre to celebrate Pride. View some photographs here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c04er3p0x23o

The organisers of Birmingham Pride said: "Our aim is to play a leading role in building a community where all people are free to live without fear or prejudice. We strive for equality for all as part of an evolving global pride movement.

 Our year round projects and partnerships are focussed on improving the lives of, and empowering the LGBTQ+ community in Birmingham and the wider West Midlands. We are committed to challenging injustices, inequality and discrimination for all of our community. 

 Our vibrant parade is also a celebration of LGBTQ+ life, demonstrating our contribution to our community and our city."
