After the recent inclusion of Transgender in the LGBT Stonewall charity, the Education for All conference held in the QEII centre was both educational and highly enlightening.

The day was filled with inspiring speakers that knew when to use either humour to lighten the mood or an incredibly touching story to bring their message home, giving us an awful lot to think about and share with the rest of the school. What I admired most about everyone that attended the conference, was how extremely unapologetic they were about all of the things that made them who they are. It meant that their encouragement to love and accept yourself and the people around you for who they are was all the more personal and authentic.
