To celebrate Pride this year the Co-op is offering free Pride Boxes to
community events in Sandbach. The Co-op has been flying the rainbow flag in
support of Pride since 2010, #PrideInCoop.
In support of Pride month in June and LGBTQ+ causes, the Co-op will give
away Pride Boxes to help make local Pride events a success. Each
branded box contains 20 hand-held flags, 10 sticker sheets, 15 badges
and four packs of bunting.
If you'd like to request a Pride Box for a community event in Sandbach email
[email protected] with details of the event and the name and address to
send the Pride Box to (please write Pride Box in the subject line).
Get your request in early to bag a box. The closing date for Pride Box
requests is Sunday (May 1st).
The Co-op has a long history of campaigning for equal rights and was the
only retailer to speak in Parliament in support of the Equal Marriage Bill.
The Co-op has also been included in the Stonewall Workplace Equality
Index for more than 10 years.
Pride Month is celebrated in commemoration of the Stonewall uprising in
New York in 1969, which sparked the first major demonstrations for gay
rights. A year later, to mark the anniversary of the events on June 28
1970, the first gay pride marches took place in America. Today, Pride
celebrations are held across the world from March until September.
