@helensulis Wow, they are lush! 😍

[Consortium @LGBTConsortium]

At a time when our LGBT+ communities, and particularly Trans communities, have been under attack for so long, it is important we use this time of change to reset relationships and how our communities are both talked about, and worked with.

"If you're under 25 your brain isn't fully developed, so you can't be trusted to make informed decisions"

I'm seeing this a LOT lately, especially today. And it's utter guff, based on hearsay, misunderstandings of neuroscience, or wilful ignorance.

Why? I'll tell you why

@UberKay Amen to this 👏🏻

[City Bridge Foundation @CityBridgeFndn]

We're still looking for organisations to participate in our trans inclusion survey to tell us about their experience accessing funding for their work.

Survey closes midday on Monday 4 December 2023, have your say here: https://t.co/5966YVrHJ4

[Sarah Elliott (Vibert) @sarahvibert82]

For too long, the goodwill of charities has been taken for granted. Charities are facing a #CostOfGivingCrisis and without increased funding public services are increasingly likely to cease, putting potentially millions of people at risk of not having their needs met.

[Consortium @LGBTConsortium]

Trans+ and Intersex people are being let down by a Government that wants to deny their existence and their safety.
We cannot allow our communities to be attacked in such inhumane and degrading ways as we have seen during the last week. #TogetherAlways
