PRIDE flag raising event - show your support

Colleagues, customers and members of the community are invited to join North Lincolnshire Council’s annual Pride Flag Raising Celebration on Monday 3 August in Church Square, Scunthorpe.

The event marks the beginning of Pride month celebrations in North Lincolnshire and will see the Pride flag raised as a visible symbol of equality, inclusion and diversity. Following the ceremony, the flag will fly throughout August in support of the LGBTQ+ community.

The celebration also marks the countdown to Scunthorpe Pride on 29 August, which continues to grow year on year. Last year’s event welcomed around 15,000 people, demonstrating the strong support for Pride across North Lincolnshire.

We’re proud to support initiatives that champion inclusion and create communities where everyone feels respected, valued and able to be themselves. Representatives from Ongo will be attending the event to show their support, and we’d love to see colleagues, customers and local residents there too.

Whether you’re attending to support friends, family, colleagues or the wider community, your presence can help make a positive difference and demonstrate that everyone belongs.
