This June, Andover Town Council is proud to bring Andover Pride to our town—a celebration of love, identity, inclusion, and community. Together, we’re creating a space where everyone can feel welcome, supported, and free to be their authentic selves.

Pride isn’t just a day—it’s a chance to come together, celebrate diversity, and stand proudly for equality. And this year, we’re pulling out all the stops to make it bigger, brighter, and more joyful than ever! 🎉🌈

June is Pride Month! 🌈

According to Mind, people who identify as part of the + community are between 2–3 times more likely to report having a mental health problem, in England.

Being part of the LGBTQIA+ community doesn’t automatically mean someone will have mental health problem but they’re at higher risk of experiencing poor mental health, due to stigma and other societal factors.

And.... we will be at this year's Andover Pride on 20 June at Pocket Park in Andover! So come along and celebrate with us as we stand PROUDLY at the centre of our community 🩷

So join us this June and be proud to support pride, not just this month but every month of the year! We stand with you 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
