Stuart GouldenYork Pride is underway in a year of firsts for the celebration of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Community, and promotion of equality and diversity.
A 100-strong parade congregated at York Minster and traveled on foot throughout the city towards the racecourse, where the celebrations are now in full force. This the first year a parade of this magnitude has taken place and the streets were lined with onlookers out to show their support. In another first, there is a rainbow flag flying above Mansion House for the today.
For those who missed the action, or unable to make their way to the celebrations at the racecourse, here are some crowdsourced pictures of the event…
