Pride in Belper Needs Your Support

Why do we need your sponsorship support?

In 2026, Pride in Belper will look a little different.

Rather than one large annual event, we are going back to our roots and focusing on building Belper’s inclusive culture all year round. That means developing a programme of smaller events, growing our Welcome List, creating more LGBT+ social opportunities, and raising funds for an even bigger and bolder Pride in Belper 2027.

Your support helps us keep our work community led, visible, and accessible to everyone, ensuring Pride in Belper continues to make a difference in our town, not just for one weekend, but every day of the year. Without our sponsor allies, this work simply would not happen.

While 2026 is a different kind of year, your support helps us sustain momentum and build toward a bigger, stronger parade and weekend event returning in 2027.

What do you get for your sponsorship?

Your business or organisation will be supporting local LGBTQ+ inclusion in a meaningful and visible way.

In return, you will receive:

– Exposure across our social media channels throughout the year

– Your logo featured on the Pride in Belper website until March 2027

– Automatic listing on the Pride in Belper Welcome List for 12 months

– Recognition as a community ally supporting local LGBTQ+ people

– The opportunity to be associated with one of Belper’s most visible and loved inclusive community movements

100% of funds raised are reinvested directly into supporting the local LGBTQ+ community.
