Essex Pride 2025
The Rainbow Flag is flying outside the Civic Offices in Epping this Friday and Saturday in support of Pride month.
Throughout June events are taking place across Essex to promote inclusion and equalities for anyone who identifies as part of the LGBTQ+ community.
The main Essex Pride celebrations are planned for Saturday 21 June in Chelmsford with a festival and march for everyone.
Support inclusion for all
It’s great to see how much the Essex Pride celebrations have grown over the past 20 years or so. There are many activities and events taking place across Essex to celebrate Essex pride month where people can celebrate together, embrace diversity and to support inclusion for all.
Many improvements have been made in challenging attitudes and bringing about societal changes for the LGBTQ+ community. We proudly display the Rainbow Flag as a symbol of our ongoing commitment to awareness. We recognise progress made and acknowledge challenges still faced.
Chairman of Epping Forest District Council Councillor Louise Mead
