Racism has no place in the Pride movement.

We are extremely concerned by the experiences shared by Rhammel Afflick, the Community Advisory Board and others within Pride in London.

It’s vital that all white-led organisations redouble our efforts to address institutional racism. This must begin by listening to and empowering our colleagues of colour and taking meaningful actions to eliminate racism in our own organisations.

If you have experienced racism and would like to speak to someone about how to report this, or how to access support, we’re here if you need us. You can call us on 0345 3 30 30 30.

We are a 3rd party hate crime reporting centre, meaning we can help you to report hate crimes motivated by racism, or report on your behalf.
