Southwark Pride fund

The Southwark Pride fund supports our LGBTQI+ communities to create and run events

What we will and will not fund

What we will fund

This fund will support community events taking place from 1 June to 31 August 2025. There is a special focus on events occurring on or around Pride Month in June.

Some examples of events that could be funded include:

  • community fun days
  • street parties
  • drama, writing or other arts workshops
  • exhibitions
  • music or theatre performances
  • film showings with Q & A sessions

Events should demonstrate links with the programme theme, which has been co-produced with community representatives.

What we will not fund

This fund is not for:

  • core costs for your organisation, like the work of existing staff
  • costs for any resource that your organisation would not normally be charged for using, like a venue with an existing agreement in place
  • capital costs like building works or equipment (the cost of renting items for events can be included)
  • alcohol or any other intoxicant
