It is with regret we have to say that New Forest Pride is no longer operational. Due to a lack of support, a lack of funding and time constraints on the only 2 people left at the helm, it's been too challenging to maintain in this current climate.

Thank you to everyone who has sponsored, volunteered, shown up and celebrated Pride with us. We are full of Pride for what we have achieved and hope some day someone will bring Pride back to the Forest 🥰
