Pride in Diversity

There will be no Pride in Diversity event this year, but that doesn't mean we won't be back. Thank you for all your support

We are so proud of all we have done together in the last few years, but recently life has gotten in the way. Our Committee has become smaller, and our lives have become busier. We are taking a break from Pride in Diversity. Not forever, but for a little while.

Today marks Transgender Day of Remembrance. We remember and honour all too many beautiful souls who lost their lives to waiting lists and anti-trans violence. Vigils are happening all over the UK and the world today. We encourage you to join in solidarity with the community.

Gender Reassignment is one of the nine protected characteristics under the #EqualityAct, which protects trans people from discrimination. #TransAwarenessWeek is an ideal time to learn more about what this means🏳️‍⚧️ orlo.uk/equalityact_u1…

This year’s #HCAW has been a little quieter that usual! We are still here and are working hard on our plans for 2023, so that Harrogate and our District can be a #SafePlaceForAll!

Some reminders for #ComingOutDay! 🌈 There is no ‘right’ way to come out. 🌈 It's OK to not want to be 'out' in every context. 🌈Coming out is also only a part of your LGBTQ+ journey. It doesn’t define who you are! Find advice on coming out via our hub: stonewall.org.uk/national-comin…

We have just received £300 from the @AsdaFoundation #GreenTokenGiving! This will help massively as we work towards planning our 2023 event! Thank you to everyone who voted for us!

🌈Next Saturday 2nd June Skipton will celebrate the first ever Skipton Pride in the Park event! 🌈 Noon till 8pm. Entertainment including RuPaul’s Drag Race star Baga Chipz and musical group Abba Re- Bjorn, food stalls and fun fair! #Pride #Pride2022 #Skipton

While we know anyone can catch #monkeypox, we welcome the vaccine being offered to those gay and bi men who are eligible and currently at a higher risk of getting the virus. More info from @UKHSA 👇

🌈 For #Pride2022 we’ve been Working with Pride and celebrating our LGBTQ+ colleagues. It’s important to us that everyone we work with feels comfortable and respected. Ryan from Harrogate took the time to tell us about their experience. 👇

We’re so glad @YorkPride was a huge success! Seeing this makes us even more excited for 2023, and Pride in Diversity being back too!!

The @smh could do with some Ally training to understand the do’s, don’ts and support of the LGBTQ+ community. @Pride_Diversity
