EVENTS Newbury Pride 2026

11th July 2026

We are proud to be taking part in Newbury Pride 2026, standing alongside the local community to celebrate inclusion, identity, and the resilience of LGBTQ+ young people.

You will find Step by Step in Victoria Park, Newbury, where we will have a stall and will also be walking in the Pride procession.

Why Pride matters to us

LGBTQ+ young people are disproportionately affected by homelessness, often due to family rejection, discrimination, or a lack of safe and supportive environments. At Step by Step, we work every day to ensure young people feel safe, supported, and empowered to build independent futures.

At Newbury Pride, we will be:

  • Raising awareness of youth homelessness and its impact on LGBTQ+ young people

  • Sharing information about how you can support local young people by becoming a Supported Lodgings host, foster carer, donor, or advocate

  • Celebrating Pride and the strength of young people through positive, interactive, and empowering activities

Come and say hello

Whether you are attending Pride for the first time or returning to celebrate with friends, we would love for you to come and say hello at our stall. Our team will be on hand to chat, answer questions, and share how you can Be the Hero for a young person facing homelessness.

Step by Step Opens Bedhampton Move-On House

Bedhampton House Upscaled

We are proud to announce the opening of our new move-on property in Bedhampton. This home will support up to four young people aged 18 and over, many of whom might otherwise be left waiting on housing lists, homeless, or relying on a friend’s sofa.

The Bedhampton property is the third Step by Step move-on home – a unique accommodation model for young people ready to move on with their lives but with no viable housing options available to them.
