A jubilant spirit and a whole lot of colour filled the sun-soaked town centre for Swindon and Wiltshire Pride. 

Hundreds of people gathered outside H&M at the Parade at 11.30am to march past the town centre's shops on their way towards the Pride Picnic event at Queen's Park. 

Crowds gathered to cheer on the rainbow flag-bearing, glitter-adorned revellers as they made their way towards Regent Circus before heading to the outdoor space for the rest of the day's proceedings. 

There was an extra positive atmosphere for the march as issues filling empty roles on the Swindon and Wiltshire Pride committee had almost led to there being no event at all. 

But, after a lot of hard work from those still on the committee, Swindon was able to celebrate after all.
