We’re excited to announce that we’ll be taking part in Northern Pride 2025 this summer.
Northern Pride is the biggest LGBTQ+ Pride festival in the North East of England, hosted in Newcastle upon Tyne.
After the event was a huge success last year, we’re looking forward to showing our support to the LGBTQ+ community again on Saturday 19 July.
We'll be hosting a stall on Grey Street (between Monument and Market Street), as well as participating in the iconic Pride march. We'd love you to come and visit us at our stall and be sure to give us a wave if you see us during the march.
It's a fantastic opportunity to connect with Karbon colleagues, customers, make new friends and enjoy a day filled with vibrant activities and entertainment. We also have the opportunity to enter a prize draw.
Michelle Fortune, one of our Customer Accounts Officers, spoke to us about last year’s festival:
“We had an amazing day that saw Karbon Homes colleagues support Northern Pride march in Newcastle for the first time last year. A huge effort from our LGBTQ+ Inclusion Hub who facilitated the day both in the colourful march and our wonderful market stall.
“The day was packed with fun, laughter, love and inclusion. We are excited to see this grow this year.”
Want to know more about how we’re supporting the LGBTQ+ community?
We have our very own LGBTQ+ Customer Involvement Panel. We want to hear customer voices who will be directly involved in shaping our organisation into becoming even more inclusive for the LGBTQ+ community.
