A big thank you to all who came along to support the official launch of the Community Pride Picnic Blanket as part of Charnwood Museum’s Spotlight case.

It was so lovely to see many members of the community who were a part of making the squares that form the blanket.

Special mention to Fearon Hall for orchestrating the creation of the piece, Culture Leicestershire and Charnwood Museum for allowing us to display it. And Dr Julie Bradshaw MBE| Mindset coach for doing us the honour of cutting the rainbow ribbon.

🌈 Happy Pride Month from Loughborough Pride! 🌈

June 2026 is a special time to celebrate LGBTQ+ communities, honour our history, and uplift every story of courage, joy, and resistance.
Pride means something different to each of us, from finding our chosen family to living our truth openly to standing together against discrimination.

But Pride is more than just one month.
We don’t come together for 30 days and then stop!!
We stand with each other, celebrate each other, and embrace who we are 24/7, 365 days a year.

To everyone in Loughborough and beyond: you are seen, you are valid, and you belong.
