SPONSORS & GRANTS

East Coast Pride has been awarded four years of funding by East Lindsey District Council through the Pride in Place Programme for Skegness.

​

It is the largest single commitment the charity has received since it was founded, and the first that lets us plan beyond a single event.

East Coast Pride remains free to attend, and it will stay that way. This funding is a large part of how we keep that promise.

With thanks to Councillors Danny Brookes, Billy Brookes, Richard Cunnington and Mark Dannatt
