Virtual Pride 2021

Monday, 09 August 2021

MSV has joined forces with Houseproud North West and local housing providers to host a series of free online events for customers and members of the LGBTQ+ community and allies to come together in celebration, unity, and solidarity



We are bringing Pride to you this year with a day of online events. 

Customers of North West Housing providers are invited to take part in this year's Virtual Pride 2021 event taking place on Wednesday 25 August from 10am to 5pm.

The day kicks off with a Q&A with the LGBT Foundation on the need for specialist services and creative inclusive housing for older LGBTQ+ people. There is a graffiti-style street art class hosted by the National Housing Project and an opportunity to turn your household plastics into a Pride Flag at the eco-crafting class. The day will finish with a fun-filled game of Drag Queen Bingo, hosted by Manchester's beauty queen Annabelle Lecter. Prizes will be awarded for bingo winners and resources provided for some classes.
