Angels of Freedom now has a home of its own. We've signed the lease, and while there's lots of planning still ahead, this space at Woodhouse Community Centre will help us create even more opportunities for LGBTQ+ people to connect, access support, improve wellbeing and build community together.

Remember when Tommy Robinson marched through London with his band of less-than-100k right-wing fascists and it was headline news and wall-to-wall TV coverage? London Trans Pride has 150,000 people and the only coverage is *some* news outlets taking a news wire story from PA, while others ignore it!

Today London Trans Pride was full of celebration, defiance, joy, tears, pride and protest. 150K trans+ people, allies, parents, partners, & children saying “ENOUGH” at the cruelty & blatant discrimination being targeted at trans+ people in the UK - much of it from our current government!

150,000 march through London in world's largest trans pride, organisers say
"The co-founder of advocacy group
Transparent Action said: "Andy (Burnham), if you're listening, I'm the mother of a trans child who took her life by suicide and more children are going to die on your watch if you don't do something to reverse the anti-trans policies that your predecessor has overseen.

Hey Andy Burnham! A new Prime Minister means a chance to choose a different path. For too long, refugees have been used as political scapegoats while hostile rhetoric has divided communities & harmful policies have made it harder for people seeking safety to rebuild their lives.

Today’s events in Edinburgh are a shocking consequence of the relentless hatred spewed by extreme right wing narratives. This includes politicians who have a part in pushing such division on our society. Reform & Restore have a responsibility to denounce such acts & must take responsibility.

🎪 Circus Leeds will be at the heart of our Leeds Pride Village Fete. We’re really excited to include this family-friendly activity in the day and we’re searching for a sponsor to help cover the cost. If your organisation would like to support an inclusive, community Pride weekend, we’d love chat.

Sunday 19 July, Dortmund Square, 10am til 4pm
