What a weekend! On Saturday, the Little Hiccups family headed out to the Rothwell Carnival Parade, and we had an absolute blast.
It was certainly a scorcher of a day! The heat was intense, and while we sadly lost a few numbers due to the high temperatures, but those of us who marched kept the energy sky-high. Thankfully, the parade route itself was nice and short, which was a blessing in the sun. We made up for our smaller group by singing, dancing, and bringing as much noise and colour to the streets as we possibly could!
After we finished the march, some of us stayed behind with the kids to explore the rest of the carnival ground, enjoy the stalls, and soak up the community atmosphere.
A huge thank you to everyone who came out to support us, wave, and march alongside us in the heat. You are all superstars!
Next Stop: Leeds Pride! 🏳️🌈
If you missed out on Saturday’s fun, don’t worry—the big one is just around the corner! This coming Sunday, 19th July, Little Hiccups will be marching in the main Leeds Pride Parade!
We are officially in Group 1 (Position 1.13), assembling on Calverley Street right between the Town Hall and the Art Gallery / Museum.
Want to join us? It’s not too late!
We would love to have as many families, friends, and supporters with us as possible. If you or your family want to march with us, please email Miriam at events@littlehiccups.co.uk to secure your spot.
Quick details for Sunday:
- Arrival: 11:45am on Calverley Street (Please check your bus and travel routes ahead of time, as the city centre will be very busy!)
- Dress Code: The brighter, the better! Think rainbow colours, flags, whistles, and plenty of sparkle.
Let’s make this Sunday even louder and more colourful than Saturday. See you there!
