ABOUT US
ABOUT US
Totnes Pride is a not-for-profit, volunteer led, community group born from - and shaped by - the Totnes, Dartington and South Devon LGBTQ+ community members who call it home.
Our pride festival programme is inspired by the unique history and modern culture of our town and surrounding area.
We believe in the power of arts and culture to build connection, visibility, belonging and boost our local economy - so we platform established and emerging queer talents and programme affirming social and community spaces for queer people of all ages, and the allies who walk alongside them.
Our annual Totnes Pride festival is our heartbeat, but our work will run year-round. We’re a community-led, not-for-profit, and proud of it.
We are a registered Community Interest Company so every penny we raise goes straight back into the work.
