Five reasons to set up a regular donation to TransActual: 1. You're supporting a trans led and run organisation 2. You're helping TransActual to help trans people 3. Donations help fund the types of work that are harder to get other funding for (eg talking to politicians) 4. You'll be helping efforts to resist the threats to trans rights in the UK 5. It's quick, easy and once it's set up you don't need to remind yourself to regularly donate 😉 You can set up your donation by going to https://lnkd.in/eTjGPrEG and clicking the donate button at the top.

All of these slides, but Slide 5 is SO IMPORTANT to really understand and embrace.

🌈 I am queer. And I don’t like Pride Month 😮💨 I’ll be honest — I have complicated feelings about Pride right now. We have an entire month to celebrate our existence thanks to Black and Brown, Queer and Trans people who riot made it possible for us to get our rights — rights that are still being challenged today everywhere in the world. Pride started as a riot, it should be about resistance and community. But instead, I/we need to work so much harder than any other month because this is the only month our voices get tolerated — and on top of that, corporations use them to make a (huge) profit. 💔 It is draining. This is why at Lutalica, I’m not pushing our comms team to make as much noise as we could during Pride Month. We work for the LGBTQ+ community all year round, and I don’t want my colleagues to feel overwhelmed because this is the only time of the year when straight people acknowledge us. 💪 We want to keep working for the community, providing free support to non-profits who struggle to raise funds for an inclusive brand or an accessible website. These things are not only important, they are crucial, and I will keep shouting this to whoever will listen. I wish we could have started our crowdfunding earlier than Pride Month. We could have done it later, but July and August are holiday months, in September people have no money post-holiday, and then it’s basically Christmas. So here we are — and honestly, it’s not going as well as we hoped because we’re being drowned out by voices that only speak up in the month of June. But we still need your support. 👉 Please watch the video in this post where I explain why this is important. Check out the testimonials we’ve been posting — they are proof that our work is necessary. And then, please reshare and donate to our crowdfunding campaign here 👉 https://lnkd.in/ekREhQ3U ✨ Help us design a brighter future for women and queer communities. #QueerAndProud #LGBTQSupport #PurposeOverProfit #Crowdfunding #InclusiveDesign #CommunitySupport #DesignForChange #HappyPride #PrideMonth I'm curious about what other trans and queer entrepreneurs/professionals think. Do you feel the same?

Today is an important one for me - May 17th is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia and is a day I get reflective on how far we have come but how far we still need to go. One step forward two steps back is often the case but we won't stop walking and thats what matters. Whether its setting up a PRIDE ERG, advocating for equitable processes and practices through support from Self-ID Demographics, or even reaching out to your friends and colleagues to hear their experiences that they will still be facing today, there are tons of easy things you can do to help us get to a safe and inclusive space. Check your local resources (Chambers of Commerce are a great place to start) or global charities/resources to learn how you can show up and be a better ally! #inclusion #deib #IDAHOT #LGBTQ #proud #diversity

Equip yourself with the knowledge and tools to be a proactive ally. Get your hands on these must-read books and visit essential websites to deepen your understanding of LGBTQ+ issues. Show your support by following impactful organizations, donating to LGBTQ+ charities, and volunteering your time. Together, we can make a difference every day. #SupportLGBTQ+ #PrideMonth #AllyshipInAction #Resources #Knowledge

Hey just curious, to LGBT+ people out there.... Have you ever donated clothing or material goods to other LGBT+ people? If so, what was one of the reasons you did so? Money? The environment? Shift through Identity formation and subversion? I'm trying to write a paper on LGBT+ people's experiences of environmental care through materiality. Any comments or experiences are greatly appreciated. Thanks. #transmateriality #environment
