Pride event in 'conservative area' of Norfolk scrapped over lack of support

Dereham Does Pride held its inaugural march in July but will not be returning next summer because it has struggled to find enough volunteers.

Kerry King, who was a co-chairwoman of the event, also claimed Pride events in the county had "taken a bit of a lashing" recently and were not receiving enough support.

"It's really hard to get volunteers who are willing to commit to the whole process and so we are really left with no choice," she said.

"We were also planning a fundraising ball for February but have had to cancel that too."
