During the reporting period from 25 July 2024 to 31 July 2025, Stort Pride successfully delivered regular monthly events, averaging three events per month, including: - peer-led social groups - safe space meetups - queer fitness sessions - creative workshops - community education events - outdoor wellbeing activities - the annual Pride celebration These activities provided structured, accessible opportunities for LGBTQIA2S+ individuals to connect, develop confidence, and access affirming spaces in an area where queer-specific support is otherwise limited. Attendance ranged from 10 to 60 participants per event, with approximately 400 attendees at the annual Pride celebration. The organisation also collaborated with community educators, activists, performers and local partners to provide workshops focused on: - LGBTQIA2S+ inclusion - intersectionality - queer identity development - community empowerment - cultural awareness - social justice education These partnerships increased the diversity of voices represented within local community spaces and expanded opportunities for learning and dialogue.
From July 2024 until 24 March 2025, the directors of the Community Interest Company were Samantha Clayson, Erica Garre, and Michelle Peppiatt. During this period, all directors were consulted on the company's activities and strategic decisions through formal director meetings held every six weeks. These meetings ensured that all directors had the opportunity to contribute to decision-making, governance, and the organisation's ongoing development. Samantha Clayson resigned as a director on 24 March 2025. In addition to director meetings, the company held stakeholder consultation meetings every three months with local members, partner organisations, and other local organisations with whom the CIC had established collaborative working relationships. These meetings were a key part of our stakeholder engagement, giving us a chance to gather feedback, discuss local needs, review the impact of our activities, and identify opportunities for partnership working. Consultation with local members and partner organisations has been central to ensuring that the CIC's services continue to reflect community priorities and deliver benefit to those we serve.
