Pride 2022
|
This year, we are excited to put together a list of events celebrating Pride from all across the Jewish community in the UK.
With Pride continuing being both in person and virtual this year - we want to ensure that people can still understand the importance of Pride and the voices that need to be heard. Scroll down this page to see a schedule of events that are still being added from across the community. Most of these events are not run or endorsed by KeshetUK - but we are proud to let you know they are happening. We'd love to publicise the other events across the community too. If you are running an event that you think should be featured on our website or social media, please fill in the form below or send details to [email protected]. |
