Published on March 10, 2024 by Kay R. Dennis
We received £1,102.91 from 78 financial contributors, and we spent £3,900.29. Our current balance is £17,365.18.
This month, we boosted Alia’s fundraiser to help with acute financial concerns and to support her mental health. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated already! You can continue to support the fundraiser here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-alia-through-a-mental-health-crisis
On 3rd February, we had our monthly Cardiff meetup. Thank you to everyone who attended, and thank you as always to @NotAPhaseOrg for funding and collaborating with us on these free sober socials! Trans, intersex, and non-binary people are welcome to join us for our next meetup on 9th March from 1-4PM. DM us for the location! These are usually held on the first Saturday of each month. You can also apply for travel funding to the events on our Open Collective.
On the 9th, we had our Big Splash event! These events are always a blast and allow us as trans, intersex, and nonbinary people to have a space to swim or use a gym. Join us for our next one on 8th March! These are usually held on the second Friday of each month. Of course, another big shoutout to @NotaPhaseOrg for supporting this event!
On the 19th, we had our Dyddiau Du meetup! Thank you as always to everyone who attended and to @NotAPhaseOrg for collaborating and funding. Join us at our next meetup on 18th March! These are usually held on the third Monday of each month.
On the 24th, we joined @BLMCardiff and so many other amazing organisations throughout the country for a Queer March for Palestine. We will not be complicit in Israel’s pinkwashing of their genocide. Thank you so much to everyone who attended. We will continue to show up with you on the streets until Palestine is free.
Keep an eye out: We released a survey for feedback but have paused the collection while we respond to some much needed edits. Thank you so much for the feedback provided on the survey itself. We will have this back out to you!
As a reminder, you are welcome to DM us for details on our meetups and to join our private Facebook group and Discord server for reminders on the events.
That’s all for this month. We’ll be back for another update in April!
