Our Past Events
Basildon Pride 25
We had an incredible time at Basildon Pride Festival – such an amazing celebration of love, unity, and diversity! 💜 A huge thank you to everyone who visited The Diversity Lounge Ltd stall, took part in our games, and designed their own pride flags 🎨. Your creativity truly blew us away, and we were so proud to share some of your beautiful artwork.
Of course, a massive shoutout went to our wonderful team who made it all possible. We loved meeting you all!
At Diversity Lounge Ltd, we were reminded once again how important it is to listen and support one another. The festival showed just how powerful community can be when we come together.
Diversity Lounge Ltd - Neurodiversity Talk - Let's Rethink 'Normal'
It was time to challenge the stories we had been told — about minds, about mental health, and about what it meant to belong. We came together for a bold, honest, and necessary conversation that didn’t just raise awareness — it sparked change. Whether people were neurodivergent, allies, or simply curious about how systems shaped our wellbeing, the event offered space to rethink, reconnect, and reimagine a more inclusive future.
🎤 Powerful voices were heard. Brave stories were shared. Truths were spoken.
🔍 What attendees took away:
-
A deeper understanding of how societal structures impacted mental health and neurodivergent people
-
Real lived experiences that challenged stereotypes and silence
-
Practical insights that supported inclusion and system change
-
Community connection — because no one was alone in wanting better
Different minds were not the problem — outdated systems were.
Together, we were part of the shift.
Thurrock Pride 25
🌈 We're Proud to Be at Pride! 🧠💖
We were honoured to hold a stall at Pride this year and had a fantastic time interacting with the public.
The Diversity Lounge is a space where queer, neurodivergent, and intersectional identities are not just welcomed, but centred. Pride is more than a celebration—it’s a moment to show up, be visible, connect, and care for each other. That’s exactly what we did at our stall.
We shared:
✨ Info about the counselling and peer support we offer
🌻 Friendly faces to chat with—no pressure, just connection
🧩 Resources around mental health and neurodiversity
💬 A space to be yourself, ask questions and feel held
Whether you marched, explored, or existed proudly, you belonged here, and you weren’t alone.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by — we loved meeting you and can’t wait for next time. 💛
