The Civil Service LGBT+ Network is coordinating the Civil Service’s presence at Pride events across the UK in 2022. We are also organising an online programme of events to keep Pride On wherever you live.
We will be taking part in pride marches and parades in every UK capital city this year, as well as a number of other towns and cities across the country.

Joining instructions
Meeting point
Our local organisers, Matt and Ross, will be on the steps outside Lime Street Train station from 10:00. We will move to the official muster point, St Georges Plateau at 10:30.
Feel free to join us before moving onto the plateau, if you are not in town early enough. The Civil Service group are in Block 9; look for us there.
You need to be at the muster point no later than 11:00.
After the parade
After the parade we would love to hold people together to take a large group photo. We will inform people of where on the day.
After the parade and photo, you are free to enjoy your time at Liverpool pride as you please. Matt and Ross will happily share details of their plans, but they will not be offended if people just want to do their own thing.
T-shirts
If you registered in advance, t-shirts will be provided at the meeting point.
Wear comfortable clothes including shoes, as it can be long day.
