Flyer from the London Vigil, with an intro to TDOR, the line up of speakers and a photo of candlelit tribute with the trans flag colours.

The programme for the Soho vigil for #TransDayOfRemembrance.
Huge thanks/praise due to Not A Phase for putting on the event (would love somewhere/time warmer next year) and to all the speakers.

It is dark. A candlelit chorus are singing John Lennon’s Imagine. A crowd hold more candles.

Last night I stood among 100s of others in the freezing cold of Soho Square to remember those lives lost as a result of transphobia.
We heard stories filled with anger, grief and loss but what I carried away with me most of all was the love.
These deaths must end.

Three candles in blue, pink and a white on a blue and pink background with text “Transgender Day of Remembrance 20 November”

20 November is Trans Day of Remembrance.

We remember all trans people we’ve lost to violence over the last year.

These are difficult times for the whole community. Hold your trans loved ones close today and show your solidarity. 🏳️‍⚧️🕯️

Today co chair David Mundell MP asked the Secretary of State about the importance of HIV Opt Out Testing in A&E departments.

Watch it here.

Our study suggests that community pharmacies could be a game-changer for #PrEP access in the UK, helping reduce stigma & improve #equity.

However, challenges like knowledge gaps & staff capacity need to be addressed for successful implementation.
