There is a lot of guidance available if you are unsure of some of the questions, and you can always skip parts if you are really unsure. There is even a shorter version of the survey: https://t.co/Jugb6cUVVM #GenderRecognitionConsultation
Only 2 days left to fill in the government's Gender Recognition Consultation! This is a great opportunity to voice what is needed to create a fairer & more accessible future for trans and/or non binary and intersex people. We urge you to fill this in and encourage cis allies too
The emotional support and group strength surrounding an act of direct action can make all the difference to whether it's experienced as traumatic or empowering. Make time to show love, kindness and appreciation for one another. 💖
A few lessons from the past two years at Pride Sheffield:
- direct action is effective and works best with numbers
- cops are never on our side
- solidarity is beautiful
- give support to people who've been hurt, even if they act tough
- check in on people after the event too
