I would like to thank all of the team, helpers and volunteers that worked so hard to make it possible for disabled people to have a fun day at Pride this year.
If it was not for the Access Tent I would not have been able to attend Pride, as I suffer from blackouts and need a fast entry and exit into the park.
Plus after cancer surgery I need fast access to toilet facilities. Both these issues were met plus I could just chill at the access tent.
The high dependency unit (HDU) kindly paid for by Sussex Police was in constant use, which shows that people with disabilities are now attending pride in much greater numbers, which is really great to see.
I needed to use the HDU once but because it was there I could carry on enjoying Pride after I got myself sorted.
Once again I would like to thank everyone involved with providing these facilities which must take quite a lot of planning and everyone that gave their time to make it possible for us to join in the Pride celebrations.
I look forward to going to Pride again next year.
