OXFORD PRIDE GROUP LTD
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025
The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of Oxford Pride Group Limited for the year ended 31 July 2025.
Objectives and Activities
Oxford Pride exists to promote equality, diversity and inclusion for LGBTQIA+ people within Oxfordshire and the surrounding region. The charity aims to provide safe, accessible and inclusive opportunities for celebration, visibility, education and community engagement through the delivery of public events and associated activities.
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained within the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
Oxford Pride remains committed to ensuring that Pride continues to be accessible to all members of the community regardless of financial circumstances.
Structure, Governance and Management
Oxford Pride Group Limited is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is governed by its Articles of Association.
The organisation is entirely volunteer-led, with trustees and volunteer officers overseeing the planning, governance, fundraising and operational delivery of the charity’s activities throughout the year.
The trustees meet regularly to oversee governance, finance, event planning, safeguarding, operational delivery and strategic development. The charity continues to work closely with external stakeholders, sponsors, local authorities, safety advisors, contractors and community organisations to support the safe and effective delivery of its activities.
Safeguarding
The trustees recognise safeguarding as a core responsibility of the charity and an essential part of delivering safe and inclusive events and activities.
During the year, the charity continued to develop and review safeguarding, welfare and operational procedures in relation to volunteers, performers, attendees and community participants. Trustees worked alongside operational partners, welfare providers, security teams and volunteers to support the delivery of a safe environment during Oxford Pride events and activities.
The trustees recognise that safeguarding expectations and responsibilities for public events continue to evolve and remain committed to keeping safeguarding policies, procedures and training under regular review.
Achievements and Performance
During the year, Oxford Pride successfully delivered Oxford Pride 2025, continuing its role as one of the largest LGBTQIA+ community events in the region.
The event brought together community groups, charities, local organisations, performers, volunteers, sponsors and attendees in a celebration of equality, inclusion and visibility for LGBTQIA+ people and allies.
The trustees were pleased to see continued growth in community participation, partnership engagement and sponsorship support throughout the year. A broad range of local charities, healthcare organisations, public sector bodies, educational institutions, businesses, community groups and independent traders participated in the event and wider activities.
The charity continued to prioritise accessibility and inclusion across its event planning and delivery, including welfare provision, accessible infrastructure, community engagement spaces and volunteer support.
During the year, Oxford Pride returned to South Park as the primary event location. The decision to relocate the event followed notification that the Castle Quarter site had been placed up for sale by Landsec, creating uncertainty around the future availability of the location and limiting the trustees’ ability to confidently plan future events.
The trustees initially explored returning the event to Oxpens, the historic home of Oxford Pride over twenty years ago. However, due to planned construction works and development activity affecting the site, this was ultimately deemed unviable for the 2025 event.

OXFORD PRIDE GROUP LTD
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025
South Park was selected following consideration of a number of potential locations across Oxford. The trustees considered South Park to be the most operationally suitable option due to its proven ability to host large-scale infrastructure events, its accessibility for attendees and contractors, and its capacity to safely accommodate the infrastructure required for a major public event. Alternative locations suggested during consultation were considered less suitable due to operational, accessibility and infrastructure limitations.
The move to South Park resulted in significantly increased operational expenditure compared with previous city-centre events. In prior years, the charity had benefited from existing city-centre infrastructure, including permanent building lines, paved and hard-standing surfaces, integrated utilities and natural street boundaries which reduced the need for extensive temporary infrastructure.
At South Park, the charity was required to implement substantial additional infrastructure and operational measures. These included the installation of Heras fencing to secure the event site during extended build and breakdown periods, increased overnight and 24-hour security provision across multiple days, expanded toilet and waste management facilities, and full reliance on diesel-powered generators to provide power for entertainment areas, traders and operational requirements.
Additional operational planning and volunteer coordination were also required to support the introduction of donation collection systems and associated volunteer training.
The trustees remain committed to improving accessibility across all Oxford Pride events. During the year, accessibility infrastructure including temporary access matting, British Sign Language interpretation and live captioning services were funded through dedicated accessibility sponsorship support. While these provisions represent a significant operational cost, trustees believe they are essential in ensuring the event remains accessible and inclusive for all attendees.
The trustees recognise that expectations surrounding public Pride events continue to evolve. Attendees rightly expect events to be safe, accessible, professionally managed and inclusive, with appropriate infrastructure, welfare provision, accessibility measures and operational oversight. While the trustees fully support these expectations, the financial and operational implications associated with delivering events to these standards have increased significantly in recent years.
The trustees are also conscious that there can be differing perceptions regarding how Pride events are funded. While Oxford Pride receives valued support from grant funders, sponsors and community partners, the event is not wholly funded through public or local authority funding. The ongoing delivery of Oxford Pride remains heavily reliant on sponsorship, fundraising, donations, trader participation and volunteer contribution.
During the year, trustees continued to carefully review planned expenditure in response to rising operational costs. A number of difficult decisions were required in order to maintain the financial sustainability of the event whilst protecting core accessibility, safety and operational requirements.
One such decision included the removal of the community stage from the 2025 event programme due to cost pressures associated with infrastructure, power, staging and staffing. The trustees recognise that this reduced opportunities for some local performers and community participants who have historically formed an important part of Oxford Pride’s programme.
Trustees also reviewed and reduced a number of additional planned infrastructure elements and programming proposals, including additional marquees, circus tent installations and expanded stage provision, in order to ensure that the event remained financially viable and operationally deliverable within available resources.
In response to increasing event delivery costs and wider financial pressures affecting the events sector nationally, the charity introduced a voluntary suggested donation model during the event. This approach was intended to support the long-term sustainability of Oxford Pride whilst ensuring that the event itself remained free and accessible to all attendees.
The trustees were encouraged by the positive response to the voluntary donation initiative, which provided an important additional source of community-led income during a period where competition for sponsorship and external funding continues to increase.
Trustees recognise that maintaining free access to Pride events while delivering the level of safety, accessibility and infrastructure now rightly expected by attendees presents an ongoing financial challenge. Voluntary donations therefore form an increasingly important part of ensuring the long-term sustainability and accessibility of Oxford Pride.

OXFORD PRIDE GROUP LTD
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025
The trustees recognise that there are differing views within parts of the community regarding the role of corporate sponsorship within Pride events. However, the trustees believe that sponsorship and partnership support remain essential in enabling Oxford Pride to continue operating as a free public event whilst meeting the substantial operational, safety and accessibility requirements associated with delivering a large-scale event safely and responsibly.
The trustees remain committed to ensuring that partnerships align with the values and objectives of the charity and continue to prioritise community engagement and accessibility in all aspects of event delivery.
In addition to the main Pride event, the charity continued to support a number of smaller community-focused activities throughout the year. This included the continued delivery of the Oxford Pride Big Swim sessions at Hinksey Outdoor Pool during the summer period. These sessions were supported through voluntary donations and community fundraising activity undertaken throughout the year and provided additional inclusive social opportunities outside of the main Pride event itself.
The trustees are particularly grateful for the ongoing support received from local community partners and venues who continue to support Oxford Pride through independent fundraising activity across the year. This includes regular fundraising events, community quizzes and seasonal activities organised in support of the charity.
The trustees would particularly like to acknowledge the ongoing support of The Jolly Farmers, whose regular fundraising activities throughout the year, including monthly quiz events and seasonal fundraising initiatives, continue to make an important contribution towards supporting Oxford Pride’s community activities and fundraising objectives.
The trustees recognise the importance of developing a broad and sustainable mixture of income streams, including community fundraising, local partnerships, sponsorship, donations and grant support, in order to reduce financial risk and support the long-term sustainability of Oxford Pride as a free and accessible community event.
Financial Review
The charity reported total income of £96,609 during the year, representing a significant increase compared with the previous financial year. Income was generated through a combination of sponsorship, charitable activities, fundraising, grant income and donations.
Sponsorship and partnership income continued to represent the charity’s largest source of funding during the year, reflecting the increasing importance of external support in sustaining large-scale public events. The trustees are grateful for the continued support received from sponsors, community organisations, traders, grant providers and individual supporters.
Total expenditure during the year amounted to £106,170, with event delivery expenditure representing the largest area of spend. Costs continued to increase across several operational areas including infrastructure, insurance, licensing, security and accessibility provision.
The charity recorded a deficit of £9,561 for the year compared with a deficit of £15,221 in the previous financial year.
At the year end, the charity held net assets of £22,068.
The trustees consider the charity’s financial position at year end to be stable and sufficient to support ongoing planning and operational commitments.
The trustees also recognise the importance of continuing to improve organisational reporting, transparency and impact measurement in future years. As the charity continues to develop, trustees intend to review the inclusion of additional operational and community metrics within future annual reports in order to better demonstrate the scale, impact and accessibility of Oxford Pride’s activities to attendees, funders, sponsors and stakeholders.
Reserves Policy
The trustees recognise the importance of maintaining appropriate reserves to support the ongoing sustainability of the charity and to manage the financial risks associated with delivering large-scale public events.
The charity’s reserves are held to:
-
support future event planning and deposits,
-
manage cash flow requirements,
-
respond to unexpected operational costs,
-
and provide financial resilience in the event of adverse weather, cancellation or other unforeseen circumstances.
The trustees will continue to review reserve levels regularly in line with operational and financial risks.

OXFORD PRIDE GROUP LTD
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025
Risk Management
The trustees continue to monitor a range of operational and financial risks affecting the charity.
Key risks identified include:
-
increasing event infrastructure and safety costs,
-
reliance on sponsorship and fundraising income,
-
volunteer capacity,
-
volunteer retention and key person dependency,
-
licensing and compliance requirements,
-
reputational risk,
-
adverse weather,
-
inflationary pressures,
-
and wider economic pressures affecting both supporters and attendees.
The trustees also recognise that future legislative and operational requirements relating to public event safety and security may result in additional financial and operational pressures in future years.
The trustees have identified volunteer retention and key person dependency as an ongoing organisational risk, particularly in relation to the planning and delivery of Oxford Pride’s main annual event.
As a wholly volunteer-led organisation, the charity relies heavily on the continued goodwill, availability and specialist expertise of individuals who contribute significant time, operational knowledge and professional skills throughout the year. The trustees recognise that the loss of individuals with critical organisational or operational knowledge at short notice could present challenges to the continuity and safe delivery of the event.
The trustees recognise that increasing operational complexity, alongside growing expectations around accessibility, safeguarding, safety and event management, places additional pressure on volunteers and key organisers.
During the year, trustees began reviewing a range of potential measures intended to strengthen organisational resilience, improve volunteer retention and support continuity planning for key operational functions.
Trustees will continue to review the charity’s long-term volunteer sustainability and operational resilience as part of its wider governance and risk management responsibilities.
The trustees seek to mitigate these risks through ongoing financial oversight, budget monitoring, partnership development, stakeholder engagement, event planning processes and appropriate use of professional contractors and advisors where required.
The trustees remain conscious that Oxford Pride operates within a rapidly changing operational and financial environment for public events, where increasing expectations around accessibility, safeguarding, safety and professionalism must continually be balanced against financial sustainability and the charity’s commitment to remaining free and accessible to the community.
Plans for Future Periods
The trustees remain committed to developing Oxford Pride as a safe, accessible and inclusive event for the whole community.
Planning for Oxford Pride 2026 is already underway, including the return to a city-centre model intended to increase visibility, accessibility and engagement across Oxford.
While the return to a city-centre model for 2026 is intended to improve visibility, accessibility and community integration, trustees recognise that evolving safety, licensing and infrastructure requirements will continue to present significant operational and financial considerations.
The trustees will continue to focus on:
-
long-term financial sustainability,
-
strengthening community partnerships,
-
increasing accessibility and inclusion,
-
expanding volunteer engagement,
-
broadening community fundraising opportunities,
-
and maintaining Oxford Pride as a free and welcoming event for all.
