In dark times it felt positive joining one of today's Trans Solidarity Rides in #Edinburgh - big shout to the organisers @infrasisters.bsky.social + Queens of Pain + Edinburgh School of Rocks for making the magic happen 👏🏳️‍⚧️🚲🏳️‍⚧️👏 Photo album >

Cycling UK excluding trans women from their 100 Women in Cycling Award was unnecessary and discriminatory. Went for a solidarity ride with others today

Great to have you along today!

Sunday 14th December- Solidarity Ride with @infrasisters.bsky.social & others.

What makes a good place? Overview This questionnaire is asking about where you live in Edinburgh: How would you score it? What you like about it? What would make it better? It covers the key things that make a good place to live such as housing, local shops and services, healthcare, open space, play, community space, jobs and public transport. You can answer the questions as an individual or as a group. You don’t have to answer all the questions or provide detailed answers. It will take 10 minutes to complete Why do we want to know? We are starting to think about the plans for how Edinburgh develops and changes in the future. We know that Edinburgh is not just one place, but it is made up of many different areas. Each area has its good points, bad points and challenges. We will use the results of this questionnaire to get an understanding of each area and what we need to plan for: what needs to be protected and what might be needed.

It looks as though the UN have chosen a different theme for their recognition of the day. Both are admirable and valid, but we're using the IWD theme.
