Today is International Non-Binary People's Day and the first day of Non-Binary Awareness Week

The day was first celebrated in 2012, started by Katje van Loon. The date was chosen for being precisely midway between International Women's Day and International Men's Day.

We presented a cheque to our LGBTQ+ charity partner @sayitsheffield.bsky.social at their #IDAHOBIT event on Saturday! 🙌

A total of £40.02 was raised, following a pledge to donate 20% of proceeds from our #swfc raffle.

This will aid SAYiT's work in helping young LGBTQ+ people across Sheffield! 💙
