About
Wexford Pride is a community organisation based in Wexford, Ireland working on lgbtq+, community development.
Wexford Pride is an entirely volunteer-run community organisation based in County Wexford, Ireland. It supports, celebrates and uplifts the LGBTQIA community across Co. Wexford, particularly in rural areas where access to support and visibility is limited. Its work includes the annual Pride in the Park and Pride Inside events, weekly and monthly peer support groups, community spaces such as Queer Chorus, Tea on the Quay and Art Club, and the Aiteach queer culture zine. Wexford Pride states that it does not accept annual funding from corporate or political bodies and relies on volunteer work and donations, alongside some grants. Its events and groups are open to all adult members of the LGBTQIA community, with a stated commitment to challenging racism, classism and other forms of oppression.
