Happy Pride month!
As Pride month draws to a close, we wanted to take the opportunity to wave our collective virtual flags for the trans community. Many organisations held their events over the weekend (27th and 28th June) including the first ever Global Pride 2020, a 24 hour live event which was streamed online. We hope you were able to join in the celebrations.
Wherever you are and whatever you did to celebrate, we want to let you know that we are incredibly proud to be part of this fantastic community.
Share your Pride 2020 pics and we will include them in next month’s newsletter.
