About Aylesbury Community Pride 

• Aylesbury Community Pride is a “CIC” - Community Interest Company. 
• A community interest company is a type of company introduced by the United Kingdom government in 2005 under the Companies Act 2004, designed for social enterprises where there is a wish to use their profits and assets for the public good.
• Founded in September 2023, Aylesbury Community Pride was set out to:
• Prepare, plan and provide a Community Pride event for Aylesbury Town. 
• Boost visibility, understanding and empathy for the LGBTQ+ community. 
• Provide a safe space for the queer community in Aylesbury. 
• Based on the 2021 census “(3.2%) identified as gay, lesbian, bisexual, or another sexual orientation” meaning it is estimated that 2,814 people in Aylesbury identify as LGBTQ+. 
• The Aylesbury Community Pride logo features arrows in multiple colors, a reference to Aylesbury town’s coat of arms and motto “semper prorsum.” Translated to the general meaning of “always forward”, this phrase serves as the organization's foundation of striving for progress in the LGBTQ+ community.
