This course was incredibly helpful and has given me lots of knowledge about gender appropriate language and more confidence in using it both personally and professionally.

A really valuable session – it covers the legal and practical aspects (and flaws!) and discusses ways forward. It encourages empathy and reflection. Really well facilitated.

It was a lot of fun and really informative. I feel much more confident in my knowledge and feel I am better able to oppose outdated opinions and be an ally to the trans community.

Brilliant training course, good to know more about the history so you are able to empathise. Would recommend the training within work as it helps to start the conversation to bring change, big or small. It’s a start!
