ZERO DISCRIMINATION DAY

In 2014 The United Nations declared 1 March ‘Zero Discrimination Day’ as part of a global campaign to promote equality and highlight the need for individuals and societies to uphold the principle of zero discrimination, which is based on the belief that everyone should be treated equally and with respect, regardless of race, gender, age, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, disability or any other status ✊️

Let’s create a more equitable, just world where everyone can live authentically and freely, fostering a global culture of inclusivity and diversity 🌍💪

Happy Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week! (ASAW) 16-22 February 💚🤍🩶🖤

ASAW was created in 2014 and is dedicated to raising awareness and fostering acceptance of aromantic spectrum identities, as well as celebrating the diverse experiences within the aromantic community. Aromanticism (abbreviated to aro) is a romantic orientation characterised by lack of interest in romantic relationships 💚

Let’s take this opportunity to educate ourselves and others, challenge societal norms around romance, and support those who identify as aromantic within the LGBTQ+ community🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💪

🏳️‍🌈 February is LGBT+ History Month! 🏳️‍⚧️

LGBT+ History Month is celebrated in the UK every February, to commemorate, celebrate and learn about the struggles, rich history, contributions and achievements of le***an, gay, bisexual and transgender people 🌈

The initiative was launched in 2005 by Schools OUT UK, an organisation that supports LGBT+ inclusion in education and marks the abolition of Section 28 in 2003, a law that prohibited the “promotion of homosexuality” by local authorities and schools ✊

It’s a time to reflect on history, amplify voices, and push for a more inclusive future. Let’s learn, support, and stand together! 💪

Today, on Holocaust Memorial Day, we remember the six million Jews and countless others, including those overlooked and forgotten from the LGBTQ+ community, mainly gay men, who suffered and were killed during the Holocaust. May we honour their memory by standing against hate and fostering compassion. Never forget 🕯️

Zander Bruce and Ben Davis will speak on behalf of Glastonbury Pride, along with other community leaders from the Jewish and traveller communities at a simple ceremony at the Peace Pole outside Glastonbury Town Hall at 10am to mark the memorial day which also commemorates the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz 🕊️
