I would like to thank the Pride Access team for the services they provided at Preston Park this year which were first class.

The assistance offered at the dedicated Access tent, together with the ability to recharge my scooter battery enabled me to leave the scooter charging in a safe area while I was able to wander around the park with my stick, makeing it a stress free and enjoyable pride. The provision of the dedicated toilet cubicles for our use was another great and welcome idea.

So was the idea of the Lunch Positive Community Café. I was very happy to make use of the café knowing that what we paid for our meal was going towards charity. Unfortunately, I understand they had experienced some difficulties with the food preparation/delivery to the park so there was only curry which I am unable to eat. I did have a cake and coffee which was very nice. Friends with me did have the curry and they told me it was very good.

Well done to everyone involved and a very big thank you from me.
