The Queer Parenting Partnership was launched in 2020, in response to the shocking lack of birth and parenting support services for LGBTQ+ people in the UK.

A concrete thing every UK person who cares about trans rights can do right now:

1. Email a link of this report to your MP, with highlights from the executive summary in your email. Ask them what it means for your constituency and their party - highlight trans people's legally mandated human rights
TW.
Needs to be widely shared with cisgender people, especially politicians. Utterly horrifying that Britain has come to this- that most of Britain is just looking the other way while a whole community is being eliminated from society because of lies and hatred. transactual.org.uk/wp-content/u...

They ask why we still need Pride. Then they say things like this:

“Trans people have been lied to over many years about what their rights are. … There has to be a period of correction because other people have rights.”

We cannot have Pride sponsors who have transphobic policies.
Sign our open letter to demand Pride organisers take action to make Pride fully LGBTQ+ inclusive, and not put profits before protest.

🚨 Sign our open Letter to UK Pride organisers 🚨
Barclays Bank, sponsor of Liverpool Pride, is banning trans people from using the workplace bathrooms they align with.
Our open letter to all major Pride organisers asks that they evaluate their sponsors to ensure that they're fully LGBTQ+ inclusive.

"When I found the term “asexual,” it was as if a massive weight had been lifted off my chest. Suddenly, there was a name for what I’d been feeling, and I wasn’t alone."

I would like to be explicit here. Bayswater as not *just* a conversion therapy group. They are explicitly a child abuse enabling group.

In the Bayswater discord, parents talked about destroying their kids possessions and blocking access to childline.
