Doncaster Pride 2025 is just a few days away and for the very first time, Doncaster-based rail freight operator DB Cargo UK has sponsored the event. <\/p>\n

The sponsorship is part of a range of activities coordinated by the company\u2019s Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) Council, which was established in 2024. <\/p>\n

HR Director Laura Clarke said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAt DB Cargo we are deeply committed to championing our culture of \u2018EDI is BAU\u2019 where Equality, Diversity and Inclusion is Business as Usual. Through this, we cultivate a workplace where every individual feels valued, respected and empowered to be their authentic self.”  <\/p>\n

During Pride month, the EDI Council gained approval for a special Pride liveried loco, which is almost complete. And in celebration of the company\u2019s Diversity Week in November, the Pride loco (66068) will be officially named and its nameplate revealed. <\/p>\n

Simon Lock, Chair of DB Cargo UK\u2019s EDI Council, added:<\/strong><\/p>\n

We believe in creating a truly inclusive society and our partnership with Doncaster Pride is a powerful step in that direction. We are excited to be celebrate the spirit, pride and unity of Doncaster and the wider community, with more exciting things coming from DB Cargo in 2025.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to have DB Cargo joining the Doncaster Pride lineup! The generosity of our sponsors is what helps make Doncaster Pride happen, and having representation in that lineup from businesses with a strong link to Doncaster and its\u2019 people means so much to us.<\/p>\n

\u201cDoncaster Pride strives to make Doncaster a better and more inclusive place for us all and DB Cargo\u2019s help to do this is vital. We are really looking forward to this new collaboration and can’t wait to see DB Cargo\u2019s colleagues on the day and give a big thanks in person to the team!” <\/p>\n
