[edit] The Festival
Reading Pride's stated aims are to:
- Celebrate the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.
- Ensure a sense of belonging
- Build strong and positive relations between people of different backgrounds, working towards a shared vision of social equality and inclusion in Reading and the surrounding areas
The main way in which the Reading Pride organisation tries to achieve these aims is by the annual "Festival" event which is held annually on the first or second weekend in September
