Taunton Pride are asking for volunteers to step up to take on roles in the organisation ready for the 2024 Pride season. They explain that last year's event was organised by just two people, but that this is in the long run, unsustainable. Taunton Pride's press release says "Prior experience is welcome but this is also an opportunity to try something new. You do not have to be an experienced event organiser to come forward. You just need to be passionate and able to see the project through to the end. Once you have signed up we will expect your commitment to last until after the event is successfully delivered in 2024. Taunton Pride is of course welcoming of anyone regardless of their race, colour, religion, sexuality, country of origin, disability, gender identity, age or background, as long as they are committed to equality for others on the same basis. Experienced support from last year will remain in place and provide institutional knowledge to the new team. They will not be expected to start from scratch". If you would like to step forward please contact rob.ewers@tauntonpride.co.uk, or visit the Taunton Pride Facebook page. The organisation says that in order for the 2024 event to go ahead, a committee needs be assembled quite soon.
