It seems @sheffcouncil fund @LGBTSheffield to run the City’s LGBT+ partnership, thereby helping deliver the City’s equality objectives. Is this good value and appropriate spending of residents money?
7/7
2026 looks promising with another large surplus accrued, a new grant from @TNLUK and presumably continued £10K funding from @sheffcouncil. Why are these organisations funding a charity that had over £48K misappropriated recently and can’t produce consistent accounts?

Accounts for 2025 show lessons have not been learned with this statement from the Independent Examiner.

@LGBTSheffield have just published long overdue accounts for 2024 - a bumper year showing an income of £53,770. Shockingly, standard outgoings are dwarfed by ‘loss of misappropriated funds’ of £40,640.

Evidence of yet another LGBT/Pride charity lacking financial management skills and possibly worse. @LGBTSheffield has over the years provided Pride events and LGBT network/drop-ins with an annual Pinknic, its flagship event.

Here is @heatherpaterson of @LGBTConsortium, at the @SheffCouncil-promoted #IDAHOBIT2025 day. #EqualityAct protects us all, yet Heather is unhappy that the @UKSupremeCourt has underlined the protection of woman as a sex class and clarified the definition of woman in law.
@_OliviaBlake tells us it will undermine the existence of GRCs IF THE GUIDANCE GOES THE WRONG WAY. but the guidance will follow the ruling & tells us a GRC does not grant person access to oppo sex services. @SheffCouncil please get your heads around this. Stalling helps no one
@tracygilbert72 intervenes: "Does she agree with me that Trans Women & Trans Men should have services & provisions on that basis & that sex & gender are two different things?"
@_OliviaBlake thinks that's problematic & better that we interpret the EqAct as we did previously "
It is no longer @UKLabour Party policy to support Self ID, but one of our Sheffield MPs @_OliviaBlake carries on saying that we need to see self I.D.

The Women of Sheffield, joined by women from Leeds, taking action against the injustices of the DOJ letting men who wear woman face being in women's single sex prisons

Why did women carry a banner with XX on it behind the goal at the England v Switzerland women's game?

XX marks the spot! Go sisters! The @FA needs to know what a woman is.

You cut off your supply chain if you let men play in women's teams. Where will the next Lionesses coming from if girls are squeezed out of their own game by males identifying as women?
At #BramallLane this evening, we're protesting with @twelve0fiveUK about men in women's sport. Without women in grassroots football, there would be no #Lionesses, #FootballAssociation - stop sanctioning young women for speaking the truth.

When a young woman asks someone with a beard whether he's a man, does she really deserve to be grilled for 3 hours, accused of 'transphobia' and banned from playing the game she loves?
We don't think so.
