As part of lent members of YAG are meeting weekly to discuss Peace and Justice Issues. This week we were joined by a member of @YCCNetwork who spoke about their current projects around the environment and we have decided to #takethevegpledge when we meet up together in April!
We're looking for a supporter to join us at Greenbelt in August, to help staff the stall on a rota system. In return you'll get a ticket, lots of support, expenses and the chance to enjoy the festival when not helping on the stall.
If you're interested, drop us a message!

Throughout February for LGBTQ+ history month the Iona Community Glasgow Uni Students Group will be focused on justice, peace, wholeness and reconciliation for all LGBTQ+ people. If you are a student in Glasgow we invite you to join them on Thursdays 12:15pm at the Uni chapel.
Today members of the resident team gathered in St Oran's chapel to mark Trans Day of Remembrance.
Around the chapel there were 375 stones, each with a name of one of the trans people murdered in the past year
We remember them.
