More councillors than ever support PrideFest 2019

News

More councillors than ever before have used some of their community ward budgets to support Croydon PrideFest this year. Some have clubbed together to provide specific services, such as British Sign Language signers, improved disabled access and high profile performers. Our aim this year was for Croydon PrideFest to be as accessible and inclusive as possible and the support from our councillors has helped us achieve this.

The councillors listed on the sponsors page all donated 5% or more of their ward budget to Croydon PrideFest. We asked for 5% as we believe approximately 5% of their constituents are likely to be LGBTQIA+. However, we are also extremely grateful to the following councillors who also donated to Croydon PrideFest:

  • Cllr Mario Creatura
  • Cllr Jason Cummings
  • Cllr Lynne Hale
  • Cllr Yvette Hopley
  • Cllr Tim Pollard
  • Cllr Stuart King
  • Cllr Jerry Fitzpatrick
  • Cllr Sean Fitzsimons
  • Cllr Patricia Hay-Justice

BSL interpreters have been sponsored by Waddon ward councillors, with Fairfield ward councillors sponsoring high profile performers. Improved accessibility for those with a disability has been sponsored by the Conservative Group.
