Happy Asexuality day. Lets celebrate the ACE community not just today but every day #InternationalAsexualityDay

Getting ready for a fantastic PRIDE weekend. With @WMPLGBTNetwork @NCA_UK @LGBTStaffsPol @CCPippaMills

Today is #InternationalAsexualityDay, a day to recognise and enable the work of the international ace community. Asexuality still has many stigmas attached, so it's important that we use this day to raise awareness and to educate, especially from an intersectional point of view.

In 2023, the trans, non-binary and gender nonconforming community is one of the most targeted and vulnerable groups in the UK. See us, hear us. Be kind. Be compassionate. Don't hate. Trans people are simply human, too. #TDOV #policewithpride #istandwithtrans

Happy International Women's Day to all of the women in our community #embraceequality #IWD2023
