Civil Service LGBT+ Network at Pride Cymru, Cardiff Pride, 2024

The Civil Service LGBT+ Network are planning on attending and parading at this location.

-–

Last year the general plan was to meet at City United Reform Church, Windsor Place, Cardiff, CF10 3BZ from 09:00 onwards, with the parade beginning at 11:00. This year’s details will be confirmed to everyone who registers ahead of time.

The parade route is wheelchair accessible. Dogs are permitted, but not recommended as it is likely to be noisy, busy and very hot.

Please note that participation in the parade will not provide you with entry to the Pride celebrations in the castle grounds. If you wish to join the Pride celebrations in Cardiff Castle, you will need to buy a separate ticket from Pride Cymru.

A copy of this year’s Pride route can be found here. This year’s route is approx 1.4 miles long and we anticipate 1.5 to 2 hours to complete.

If you are late, please contact the organiser, Bethan Cable – contact details will be provided directly to everyone who signs up.

If you would like to join our Whatsapp group ahead of Pride, please let me know your personal mobile number.

As I am sure you can appreciate organising such participation takes time and our final plans for the day are not yet finalised. Please check back here closer to the date for details. Start time for this event have all been put at 1100, this is only a holding time and is highly likely to change.

Please sign up to join us at this event through the link above, the same form is being used to sign up to all parades and events, so only needs to be filled in once. If you are having trouble accessing this form please email - pride2024@civilservice.lgbt. Please also email this address or your local organisers if you are no longer able to attend an event, but have signed up.

As with previous years we will be able to supply a wonderfully charming pink Civil Service LGBT+ Network t-shirt, we are, this year more than ever, asking you to reuse a t-shirt you might have from the previous year, this both helps with financially and by helping the network be more sustainable.

Closer to the event please remember to keep an eye out in your emails with regards to more localised communications from your local organisers or the central team. This may include instructions on where to collect t-shirts from, asking you to reconfirm your place if this is a balloted parade or something else.

Please remember that you will be representing the Civil Service LGBT+ Network and therefore the Civil Service at these events and must adhere to the Civil Service Code.
