Santa will make his first trip spreading Christmas magic and good cheer around Brighton & Hove this Thursday evening (November 22) on the Brighton and Hove Bus Company annual Santa Bus.
Community groups across Brighton and Hove will put a little bit of pride back into their city thanks to grants worth nearly £20,000 from the Pride Social Impact Fund (SIF).
Community groups from across Brighton and Hove receive a further boost thanks to the Pride Social Impact Fund. From Whitehawk in the east to Portslade in the west, a record number of groups and organisations across the city have been awarded a slice of more than £8,000. The hope is they will use the money to bring a rainbow of happiness to their communities – in much the same way Pride does for more than 162,000 people in August.
For one weekend every year, the city is taken over by a sea of rainbows. From the parade watched by tens of thousands through to the festival in Preston Park to the street party in St James’ Street, the whole city comes together to mark the LGBT celebration that is Brighton Pride, the largest annual event in the city’s calendar.
Brighton Pride received an award for Greatest Contribution to Sussex Charity by an organisation at the 2015, Sussex Business Awards staged at the Grand Hotel in Brighton last night.
Brighton Pride have announced the formation of an independent board to facilitate the Social Impact Fund, a new incentive set up by Pride to benefit the city’s communities in the areas most affected by the social impact of the Pride weekend celebrations.
