CEO of LGBTQ+ health charity, former academic geographer. Still a theory slut who likes to think around.
The PrEP Clinic service is mainly for LGBTQ+ people living in Leicester. If you live in Leicestershire or Rutland, contact the Trade office to discuss your eligibility.

If you are already on PrEP and need more medication, please book into our Friday afternoon CLINIC xtra service.

Let's fill the space with queer joy, grief, and righteous anger they can't ignore

Having watched that, I am now more convinced than ever that the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence need to pay a visit

It's also a but more complicated than this. The old garden was only accessible through the LASS building, but did contain a number of memorials to individual gay men. These have been removed and archived with the National AIDS Memorial project (I think). But the new memorial is open to the street

I would say, though, is it pinkwashing if you don't actually acknowledge that the majority of people who died of AIDS-related conditions in Leicester were gay and bi men?

The Memorial Garden ended up there because HTL shares a boundary with the building that used to house LASS. When LASS closed, they got full control of the previously shared patch of land on condition they created the Memorial Garden. But Peter is absolutely correct that this doesn't sit right

Autism and adhd and the rest are not modern phenomena. The overstimulation and constant barrage of information which causes them to become a disability is, to an extent, a modern phenom.
It’s a complex and multifaceted situation but what it is not, is new.
