Manchester Village Pride has announced it's giving a record-breaking £183,500 to five charities after this year's event in August. The recipients are akt (the Albert Kennedy Trust); Sparkle, the national transgender charity; the Proud Trust, the LGBT Foundation and the George House Trust. Another £30,000 will go towards supporting grassroots LGBTQ+ community groups. Manchester Village Pride says the achievement belongs to all the people who stepped up to bring the event back to its community roots. The previous Manchester Pride company went bust last year with debts of £1.3 million. (Picture: Electric Egg / Shutterstock.com)
