EVENT PARTNERS
Cavalry Group
At a time when Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion is under attack, Cavalry Group are so proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the LGBTQ+ community. Pride feels so needed right now.
The Health and Social Care sector is full of love, acceptance, and genuine care, but more needs to be done. We want to make sure that every person receiving care not only feels safe to be themselves but also celebrated and treasured.
Happy Pride from everyone at Cavalry Group!

Care Talk
Care Talk are proud to be a media partner for Pride in Social Care in Manchester, championing diversity, inclusion, and the vital role of social care in embracing and supporting LGBTQ+ individuals. Whether it’s ageing adults who spent years concealing their identities or younger people accessing services today, care and support must be truly person-centred and inclusive.
For older adults living with dementia, past traumas can resurface, making it essential that they receive care in safe, affirming environments—not forced back into the shadows. Likewise, younger LGBTQ+ individuals navigating support services need care that acknowledges identity, community, and the challenges they face.
Social care should be a space where everyone feels valued, respected, and free to be themselves, without fear or judgment. We look forward to an uplifting and joyful day, celebrating diversity, inclusion, and the incredible contributions of those shaping truly inclusive care. Together, we want to celebrate progress, advocate for change, and ensure that every LGBTQ+ person is seen, heard, and supported - today and always."
