Sunderland is getting ready to host a family-friendly Pride event which will celebrate the LGBTQ+ community.
Mowbray Park in the city centre will help celebrate diversity at this year's Pride with the council and its children’s services partner Together for Children launching a brand-new family friendly and free area for the event on Saturday, July 8.
On-site stalls will offer information about services such as fostering and adoption, as well as the range of support available to families and young people in Sunderland. It will also include a Special Education Needs and Disability (SEND) focused area and information, as well as a wellbeing zone featuring yoga and sensory areas.
