STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Isle of Wight Pride is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (Charity number 1175094) established in October 2017. This was a formalisation of a previous not for profit group which had been formed in 2016 as a direct result of a vigil which was held in Newport, Isle of Wight to mark the tragic shootings at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida. The not for profit group then successfully staged the first Isle of Wight Pride in July 2017 which was attended by 4999 people and in 2018 hosted UK Pride with an estimated attendance of 12,000 people. The not for profit group donated their surplus to the new CIO in October 2017.
As a membership organisation, the work of Isle of Wight Pride is overseen by a Committee of Trustees who, together with a larger group of volunteers are known collectively as Team Pride. Team Pride delivers our cause and objectives and form our core membership with voting rights. In addition, we have an informal membership category for supporters who do not have voting rights, we have yet to instigate this optional membership category.
Our constitution sets out in detail the mechanism for membership (with voting rights) and election of Trustees.
We have no paid officers. Isle of Wight Pride is fully run and managed by volunteers.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES OF ISLE OF WIGHT PRIDE
As set out in our constitution, the objects of Isle of Wight Pride are as follows:
To promote equality and diversity for the public benefit and in particular, the elimination of discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity of those living in the Isle of Wight (the area of interest) by:
a) Raising awareness of the public about the issues and difficulties affecting the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQI) people;
b) Cultivating sentiment in favour of equality and diversity and in particular, through celebrating the diversity of the LGBTQI community;
c) Staging an annual LGBTQI festival and smaller events throughout the area
d) Such other objects as are charitable under the laws of England and Wales as the trustees shall in their absolute discretion determine.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE 2021
Due to the COVID pandemic, 2020 was a year no one would wish to repeat, so it was with much disappointment that days into 2021 a second lock down was announced. By March schools started to reopen and whilst new variants started to appear, the way forward was still very uncertain.
For these reasons, the trustees, having spoken with a number of volunteers, and other parties took the decision not to organise a Pride Festival in July. Whilst it was hoped outdoor events would be permitted it was not worth the risk to commit resources especially financial to an event that could one moment be on and cancelled the next.
It transpires this was the right decision as Freedom Day was not until 19 July, two days after the Pride Festival should have occurred.
Whilst it was not possible to have the main pride festival, members of the local community and IW Pride came together to support a “Summer of Pride” a number of one off events arranged by individual business and arranged in a covid safe manner.
This had a massive impact on IW Pride and as a result this report again is considerably shorter than in previous years.
As the summer progressed, events and activities started to return, however people were very cautious. Many still taking precautions as cases of Covid still remind relativity prevalent.
In September the Isle of Wight Music Festival, delayed from June was held. Thanks to the generosity of the organisers, IW Pride was offered the opportunity to attend with a stall to promote the charity and raise funds. Whilst the event was organised with strict precautions to prevent the continued spread of covid (including proof of negative tests). It was very difficult to recruit volunteers and we attended with small handful of people.
The year continued with many covid related challenges, preventing the desire for people to come together. IW Pride continued to monitor the situation and attend small events on the Island in a covid safe manner.
