This month, Trunk Logistics was proud to sponsor and take part in Thurrock’s first ever Pride, hosted by the amazing team at the Thurrock LGBT+ Network. It was a fantastic day filled with colour, celebration, and community spirit and we’re so excited to have been involved!

Supporting Our Community
At Trunk Logistics, we’ve always believed that true strength comes from diversity and inclusion. For over 20 years, our family-run removals and storage business has supported people across Essex and the South East and now, we’re proud to help support the LGBTQ+ community of Thurrock too.

Highlights from the Day
Pride 2025 kicked off with a fun Pre-Pride Brunch at The Wharf Pub in Grays, followed by a parade through the high street. From there, the celebrations continued at the Thameside Complex, with:

-    Live Music & Entertainment
-    Panel Discussions
-    Workshops
-    Local Stalls
-    Street Food
-    An After Party to End the Night!

The energy, creativity, and dedication helped create a truly special event that brought people together from all walks of life. It was a day filled with colour, kindness, and connection - one that will be remembered for years to come.

Why It Matters to Us
At Trunk Logistics, we help people move homes and businesses across the UK and beyond but we also care about helping people feel safe and welcomed, wherever they are. We’re proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community and support events like Thurrock Pride that bring people together.

Jo’s Support
Jo, our Managing Director, proudly represented Trunk Logistics at Thurrock Pride 2025, not just as a company leader, but as a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community herself.

“Pride means a lot to me. It’s about being seen, being accepted, and feeling part of something bigger. I was really proud to be there, not just as part of the LGBTQ+ community, but also representing Trunk Logistics and the values we stand for.”

For Jo, Pride is about more than just a day of celebration. It’s about visibility, acceptance, and community. Her presence reflected the values we believe in as a company: treating everyone with respect, creating inclusive spaces, and standing together to support one another.

Thank You, Thurrock 
A big thank you to everyone who made Thurrock Pride 2025 such a success, especially the volunteers, performers, and organisers at the Thurrock LGBT+ Network. We’re proud to have played a part in this amazing day and look forward to many more celebrations in the future.

Happy Pride from all of us at Trunk Logistics!
