FEATURES

 
 

ATTACKS AT TOG HILL

 

 

The public picnic area and lay-by at these locations have long been a popular meeting place for gay men, but have often attracted the attention of people looking for easy victims to harass or intimidate them.

In a joint initiative with the Police's Hate Crime Unit, THT will be putting up posters warning the area's users to be alert to the potential for harm. THT has always been respectful of all users of cruising areas like this, and continue to warn members of the gay community against indiscreet and potentially offensive behaviour. However, if you have been a victim of an attack or witnessed an attack here, you can make a report in confidence here.

SOUTH GLOUCESTERSHIRE COUNCIL LGB EMPLOYEES GROUP

 

 

This note is from Phil Beach: In light of new legislation to protect the rights of  workers from discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation I have been asked by South Gloucestershire Council to start a group more specifically for Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual (LGB) Workers with the aim of:

Discussing the issues faced by LGB workers within South Gloucestershire Council, both negative and positive.

Having a voice in shaping new policies and procedures within the council through attending the Equalities and Diversity forum.

Having a positive voice in amending any current policies and procedures that do not meet the needs of LGB workers.

Giving LGB workers a space to meet and share experiences.

The group is currently in an embryonic stage of development and would benefit from the support / in put  of LGB colleagues in shaping its future.

If you are a Lesbian, Gay or Bisexual employee of  South Gloucestershire Council and would like to be involved in any way in this group please contact me via email.
