Beyond June: Year-Round LGBTQIA+ Calendar of Events
As we're coming to the end of Pride Month I think it's important to highlight that support for the LGBTQIA+ community is not exclusive to the month of June.
LGBTQIA+ support is needed from friends, family, workplaces, school, organisations, and communities year round. And it is only with that type of unwavering support that real change can happen.
So, over the next few days, as you're removing the rainbows from your social media profiles, i'd encourage you to ask yourself "whats next?" and "what else can I/we do to show support?"
Throughout the year there are LOADS of LGBTQIA+ related awareness and recognition days, and if you're looking for a way to keep your support going, they're an excellent place to get started.
Here's a rundown of them all...
