@Cnocbhealich @CarrieYavuz @thatinterlace @MisstahCook @JamesEdPsych Just a reminder for @HighlandCouncil schools that this message does not match the agreed principles we work to. A timely reminder perhaps to familiarise yourself with the requirements of the Equality Act (2010) and our local guidance. @NickyGrant10

LGBT History Month is here!
This year @LGBTHM will mark 20 years since the repeal of Section 28. We are marking the month to support LGBT+ pupils. The Pride flag is flying and wall displays are up. We want all young people to be PROUD to be pupils here #LGBTHM2020 @LGBTYS

Final meeting for @MisstahCook in his present role, chairing the @HighlandCouncil LGBTI Equalities Subgroup. Thank you for all you've done to promote LGBTI rights in Highland and all the best for the future. @CarrieYavuz @PMHWhighland @JamesEdPsych @PrideHighland

The YP of South Lochaber's Youth Forum meant business on Friday... They were brainstorming ideas for Safer Internet Day 📧 and Purple Friday 🌈 #HLHYouthwork #GetHeard

Disturbing. I would find it extraordinary if anyone working in clinical or applied psychology, or indeed heading up a regional psychology service, could vote Conservative after watching this.

But stranger things have happened....

Many thanks to Kirk and Alannah from @LedChalmers and @DYWWestHighland for devising and running our first employability session on equality legislation. Really valuable experience for us all. https://t.co/YC2V07y5Kc #diversity #EqualityForAll @HC_LGBTI @LGBTIScotland

@C_Birkenshaw @MisstahCook @HighlandCouncil @NairnEquality Once ripples begin, you can't stop them. It's simple physics. We're continuing the journey and always looking for ways to change cultures and behaviours to better support staff, children, young people and their families.

Honestly, these kids never cease to amaze me! FANTASTIC year assemblies today celebrating #RainbowLacesDay led by the @CA_Inverness #Diversity group!

Honoured to help facilitate this dynamic group of young people @StonewallScot @HighlandWall @NickyGrant10

@MisstahCook @merkinchschool What a natural...

[HC LGBTI+ Group @HC_LGBTI]

Members of @HC_LGBTI attended the Social Dance Club today and had a ball. Looking forward to the intergenerational work that will stem from today, as well as partnerships with communities.

[Equality Network @LGBTIScotland]

We've crunched the numbers and this year 72,458 of you took part in a Scottish #pride event! What an amazing number.

There were an amazing 21 pride events across Scotland this year, and we've loved attending every one of them to support pride across the country. #prideinscotland

[HC LGBTI+ Group @HC_LGBTI]

@MisstahCook Great to hear how the Coming Out Again work is going from @AMPWatt sounds like an opportunity for fun and dance for a future meeting date?

[HC LGBTI+ Group @HC_LGBTI]

@AitkenLorna @GayleGgorman @EducationScot Well done Gayle

[HC LGBTI+ Group @HC_LGBTI]

Young people from @HighlandCouncil schools and youth groups have a critical role in LGBTI+ education and inclusion. Great to see Jo Fitzpatrick’s (from @NairnEquality) featured in this post. Picked up by @ScotGovEdu at last year’s #SLF.

[Education Scotland @EducationScot]

Last year, a group of 50 Scottish pupils shared their passion for LGBTI+ education & inclusion 🌈 at the 2018 Scottish Learning Festival. Read about their wonderful experience here #SLF19 https://t.co/ZwVlOEZSey @MisstahCook

My mum is an amputee and my grandma is terminally ill with cancer. Going to her first Pride was on her bucket list so they travelled 400 miles to join me only for @PrideBrighton to shove them out of the way in a ‘disability tent’. Take a look:
