Reading Pride (Charity)

Reading Pride is the registered charity that organizes the town's annual Pride festival, which has run since 2004. The free one-day festival is held in early September on Kings Meadow beside the Thames. It opens with the Love Unites parade, which starts near Reading station. Outside festival season the charity runs smaller events, outreach, and fundraising across Reading and the Thames Valley.
