Ever since the Tories rushed through their ban on puberty blockers, we’ve been flooded with emails from worried parents. One mother asked us to share her fears. Read her moving perspective here: goodlaw.social/d7wy

At a time when anti-trans discrimination is rife and hate crime has reached record levels, it’s important to know what support is out there for trans, non-binary or gender-questioning individuals and their loved ones. We’ve compiled a list of resources: goodlaw.social/80bq

On average, disabled people need an extra £975 a month to have the same standard of living as non-disabled people. You can help make sure that your election candidates know about this disability price tag 🫵

I just cancelled my Adobe licence after many years as a customer. The new terms give Adobe "worldwide royalty-free licence to reproduce, display, distribute" or do whatever they want with any content I produce using their software. This is beyond insane. No creator in their right mind can accept this . You pay a huge monthly subscription and they want to own your content and your entire business as well. Going to have to learn some new tools.

We’ve been receiving email after email from desperately worried parents after the health secretary suddenly banned puberty blockers for trans young people. We will issue a case in court as soon as possible – but we desperately need your help 🏳️‍⚧️✊ goodlaw.social/66pl

The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama is consulting on closing Young RWCMD including its Junior Conservatoire. If the cuts go ahead, RWCMD will be the only Royal School of Music without a junior department. Sign the petition to save Young RWCMD 👇 loom.ly/S00qObg

IMPORTANT: I urge everyone - partic @WesStreeting @Keir_Starmer @YvetteCooperMP @AngelaRayner @AnnelieseDodds to read this first hand account from a parent. The con that is the Cass Report is going to kill trans kids. Tragic and cruel. Paula Vennels 2 @NHSEngland #BookmarkCass

Can anyone help spread the word about this please? ELM is a rescue centre that is currently caring for 200 injured hogs and about to lose its premises – they urgently need £250k to buy new premises. Seemingly impossible but can we help get them there? gofundme.com/f/last-chance-t…
