Dear siblings, friends and allies,
This week has been a difficult and painful week as the Religious Discrimination Bill was debated and our lives as LGBTQIA+ people and people of faith were challenged, questioned and degraded by media and those elected to represent us in the parliament. We are particularly aware of the impact this week has had on young people in schools and our trans and gender diverse community. Read more…

Midsumma Pride March 2022 will return to Fitzroy St, St Kilda on Sunday 6 Feb 2022. Once again marchers will colour Fitzroy St in a parade of solidarity. UNA will march, ensuring COVID-19 safety requirements are upheld, and we’d LOVE you to march with us!

Please register interest for a spot in our Midsumma Pride March group. A position in the march group is ticketed and allows each person into the after party in the Catani Gardens post march. More info will come from Nicole Mugford (UNA Co-convenor) regarding the march group.

Thank you for your ongoing interest and support.

“The Bill seeks to prohibit any discussion of what it calls “gender fluidity” by teachers, school counsellors or chaplains. It would leave trans and other gender diverse young people even more isolated and at risk than is the case now. Pitt Street proposes that the Bill should be withdrawn or rejected by the NSW Parliament.”
