LGBTQ Community Network for Brighton & Hove
Dates & Times to talk to your Sussex Police LGBT Liaison Officers
After the success of the last four live online drop-in sessions, the Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Liaison Team are hosting another session, alongside partners from Brighton & Hove LGBT Switchboard, on Tuesday (29th May) from 7.30pm to 9.30pm.
PC Rachel Piggott, works as an LGBT liaison officer for Sussex Police, said: "We’re really pleased to be holding this session alongside the LGBT Switchboard who provide valuable services in our city. The online chats are another way for people to get involved who may not live in the city, find it difficult to get out and about, or just prefer to chat on-line".
“Together we will be able to provide a range of advice and support on all lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans issues around safety, the law and policing as well as responding to other neighbourhood concerns".
"Although the LGBT team is based in Brighton, everyone is welcome to join in if they live or work anywhere in Sussex"
You can join in the live chat at www.sussex.police.uk/lgbton the LGBT Facebook page by searching ‘Brighton & Hove LGBT Team’, on Twitter by tweeting @PoliceLGBT or by using the hashtag #lgbtdropin
PC Piggott continued: "The online sessions won’t replace the popular local ‘in person’ drop-in sessions, the next of which will be held on Sunday 29th July 3pm - 4pm - Library Jubilee Street, Jubilee Street, Brighton.
