RSPB NI were proud to take part in this year’s Belfast Pride – it was an uplifting, colourful and musical day!
Guest blog by Dakota Reid It was a great opportunity for our team to join together to recognise the LGBTQIA+ community within our members, staff, volunteers and supporters and acknowledge their huge contribution to our work. At RSPB, we are determined that no-one should experience any prejudice, but instead should be celebrated for their contribution to our organisation. We also attend Pride in solidarity with members of the LGBTQIA+ community in 33 of our Birdlife Partner countries, where it is still illegal to be gay, and where people live in fear of persecution and discrimination just because of who they are. Since 2022, RSPB NI’s staff and volunteers have supported and taken part in Belfast Pride and are already looking forward to next year.
