About us
Dundee Pride (SCIO) is a registered charity (SC04815).
Organising the first Dundee Pride event began in the autumn of 2017 when Pink Saltire, LGBT Youth Scotland, with the support of Dundee City Council, began a series of consultation events within the city. From these events, it was clear that the LGBTQ+ community wanted its own Pride celebration. On the back of these efforts, a group of volunteers came together to start planning Pride and formed Dundee Pride as a charity. And now here we are!
In 2018, the official Dundee Pride events included a march through the city centre, a fun-filled event in City Square, and an after-party at the Dundee University Student Union. Pride, however, is about much more than the official events (fabulous though they are). Dundee Pride is a celebration of all LGBTQ+ people in Dundee and surrounding areas, our LGBTQ+ community organisations, our LGBTQ+ businesses, and our many, many allies.
The charity is governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees. Learn all about our super nice, clever-clogs trustees below.
