We have experience of providing a range of events which promote inclusion, diversity, and address racism, homo/transphobia and discrimination. These events provide opportunities to learn, share, and talk, bringing communities together.
Details of our upcoming events can be found below. To be kept up to date, sign up to our newsletter here. Please contact us if you have any questions about our events.
Really great. Thank you. It’s made me feel so much more comfortable working with young people and their gender, especially having conversations with them about it.
I’ve learnt lots, thank you… and had a good discussion with my daughter who also watched. Thanks Sunrise & Intercom.
