Brianna Ghey, 16, stabbed to death in Warrington, Cheshire. Our condolences are with her family. This is not reported as a Hate crime but we want to reach out to our community that we are with you at this time.

Colleagues from the Network attended the vigil for Brianna Ghey in Brum tonight, representing West Midlands Police LGBT+ Network. We felt our presence was necessary

Happy International Women's Day to all of the women in our community #embraceequality #IWD2023

In 2023, the trans, non-binary and gender nonconforming community is one of the most targeted and vulnerable groups in the UK. See us, hear us. Be kind. Be compassionate. Don't hate. Trans people are simply human, too. #TDOV #policewithpride #istandwithtrans

Today is #InternationalAsexualityDay, a day to recognise and enable the work of the international ace community. Asexuality still has many stigmas attached, so it's important that we use this day to raise awareness and to educate, especially from an intersectional point of view.
