About Disability Pride

Disability Pride logo

We have delivered annual Disability Pride events in Bromley in previous years to showcase Disabled talent, encouraging Disabled people to express their identity positively, develop collective pride and help break down stigma around disability.

We have gained great feedback at previous events from performers, including dance acts, comedians, singers and poets, local Councillors, the Mayor of Bromley and audiences of local Disabled and non-disabled people.

Feedback from previous events

  • “I really enjoyed the event today”
  • “This was amazing and I love it.”
  • “Great vibe, lively and friendly, really inclusive and accessible… Felt like a real community, welcoming and supportive…”
  • “Great talent and very inclusive. All were amazing.”
  • “I loved it, I really felt good, thank you for such a wonderful event, It was absolutely brilliant.”
  • “This was an incredible event bringing people within the community together. Well done!”
  • “Very good event, planned well, hope to attend again”
  • “Very well put together, bringing lots of people of different needs and backgrounds together, well done all.”
  • “Thank you for bringing people together! I connected with new people I would not have potentially met had I not attended. Thank you”
  • “Attending this event increased my confidence and has helped me to see I can go out more.”
