Pride in London returns as events struggle with falling funds

Pride events in the UK face financial struggles and decreasing funds, jeopardizing their future. Despite high attendance, organizers are grappling with reduced corporate sponsorships and volunteer numbers. The drop in funding is attributed to international corporations cutting Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) budgets, impacting Pride events. Some organizations have had to cancel or postpone events, while others are scaling back plans or charging for tickets, highlighting the challenges faced by Pride events nationwide.
