Brighton Pride

By a Henry Smith House Service User

A few years back me and a mixed group of close friends went to a party in Brighton and the following day we watched Brighton Pride march, including floats, banners ands music and many people of all experiences and backgrounds. 

Some of my friends are gay, some are not but all felt comfortable and enjoyed taking part in the march towards Preston Park, where there was a festival during the rest of the day. 

The festival was filled with all types of people relaxing in the sun, having some food and celebrating Brighton’s open, modern culture. There were a variety of outfits and costumes, in all colours, along with flags and hats – though some were naked, everyone was wearing a smile!
