All the best pictures from Tunbridge Wells Pride

HUNDREDS joined a colourful celebration of Tunbridge Wells’ LGBTQ community in the second annual Pride.

Pride Chairperson Jazz Alexander estimated 1,000 people took part events on Saturday [August 18] which included a march from the clock tower to The Forum, where music and performances were staged.

Ms Alexander, who heads a five-member organising committee, said: ‘It went really well, it was a good turn-out and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves – they kept saying thanks.’

Musician Miss Luna Lestrange and ‘drag king’ Chiyo Gomez were among the performers at The Forum. The organisers’ job was made easier by mild weather and local businesses, such as Oxfam Bookshop and Chapel Place Wine Bar, decorating their shopfronts specially. Passengers at Tunbridge Wells railway station were even offered Pride-themed ticket holders.
