There is no evidence trans athletes have an advantage over cisgender athletes. The truth is, rules against transgender athletes competing is rooted in bigotry and misinformation, nothing more.

[Brighton UCU @BrightonUCU]

We were there standing in solidarity with our reps targeted because of legitimate trade union activity yesterday. They walked into their investigation meeting cheered by a massive crowd of supporters. @uniofbrighton why don't you try properly negotiating instead?

Just been to see the animated film Flee at @FabricaGallery. It’s the true story of a gay youth fleeing Afghanistan with his family following the withdrawal of Russian troops in 1989. An amazingly powerful film. Watch it on Amazon and AppleTV. Thanks @UOBLGBTplus for organising.

[Switchboard @LGBTSwitchboard]

Our first panel today is our LGBTQ Community Panel 🏳️‍🌈

Chaired by @jacobb_91 he asks, ‘how has being LGBTQ influenced your housing journeys?'

Sylvia & Maggie, an older lesbian couple, give a moving account of how they were bullied out of their supported housing.

#LGBTQHousing22

“Today is an opportunity to listen and hear from the community, and the people who support those communities”.

Why not take part in some leading sports research that may tackle some of these issues?
