Our Gender Identity Youth Worker has started a new monthly pop-up Youth space at Seacroft hospital. This is open to all young people under the service who would like a chat, relax and a little bit of support or just to see a friendly face! @LeedsHospitals @Leeds_Childrens

[Leeds Teaching Hospitals @LeedsHospitals]

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, an annual observance that honours the memory of transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. We are committed to ensuring Leeds Teaching Hospitals is a safe environment for people to be who they are, patients and staff.

Thank you to everyone who came to the moving candlelight vigil at Leeds General Infirmary this evening, where we held a two-minute silence and lit candles in memory of people no longer with us. We heard from speakers from various organisations, including Trans Leeds, who are committed to supporting our trans and non-binary communities.

We also lit up Jubilee Wing to mark the day, as pictured here.

This #HateCrimeAwarenessWeek, we're calling for everyone to feel safe - at work, in their communities, or just in public.

🚨 Less than half of LGBTQ+ people feel safe holding their partners hand in public.

Stand hand in hand against hate ▶️ https://t.co/oqDTTnK2dU

[Leeds Pride @LeedsPride]

It’s National Coming Out Day!🏳️‍🌈

Today, we celebrate everyone’s individual journeys, stories and identities. We are all individuals, and the experiences we have shape who we are today.

Wherever you are in your own story, know that YOU ARE LOVED! 💜

Happy #BiVisibilityDay! 🩷💜💙

[LTHT LGBT+ Staff Network @LTHTLGBT]

Happy #BiVisibility week!
Our network supports lots of staff who are #Bi. They often face assumptions that they are gay or straight, based on the gender of a partner. It can be difficult to challenge this!

The past few days have left many of us feeling frightened, particularly those who are #Trans, #NonBinary and from #MinorityEthnic groups.
We see you, we care about you, and we are here for you.

The play hopes to raise awareness around the potential issues for those caring for someone with dementia in general, and the barriers to support which members of the gay community may perceive and experience 🏳️‍🌈

[LTHT LGBT+ Staff Network @LTHTLGBT]

We have two more performances of this wonderful play, it is a 35 minute performance with time for Q and A afterwards.
