Have you ever found yourself in the uncomfortable position of sitting in a group of people having a conversation about you as if you weren’t there?

For many people, this is their experience when it comes to sex, sexuality and bodies.

Too often because of peoples identity, physical appearance or ability their experiences and desires are left out of the conversation leaving their bodies to be sexualised or desexualised without consent.

Join us for Invisible, an open discussion with people from a range of communities who are often left out of the conversation when it comes to sex, sexuality and bodily autonomy all because of their identities, bodies or lifestyle.

The event aims to discuss some of the recurring challenges and experiences in peoples lives as they move through the world and how we as a community can support them and work towards ending some of the stigma and misinformation that still exists in this world.

Don't miss this event with a stellar panel and prizes up for grabs, thanks to ⭐️Glyde Global!⭐️
