Magpie Dance are a dance charity for people with learning disabilities, breaking down barriers to inclusion. Their dance performances at previous events have been fantastic and we look forward to this year’s performance. 

Remix Theatre Arts provide accessible drama classes, enabling people with learning disabilities to confidently express themselves and explore their potential through drama. They have also performed at previous events, and their performances are always fun and entertaining.

Abbott Movement are an inclusive dance group bringing young people together to enjoy dance and have fun. Last year’s performance got everyone up dancing so we can’t wait for this year’s performance. 

AkiOke run relaxed and inclusive karaoke sessions for young adults. They are new to our Disability Pride events and at this year’s event, they will be bringing the AkiOke experience with an interactive taster session. 

X by X Member, Lloyd Page, always makes us laugh with his comedy jokes and he is returning this year. 

Memory Singers is a community choir for people with memory challenges and their carers. The choir’s list of songs is wonderfully diverse and last year’s performance was excellent, with lots of opportunities for audience participation.
