GALIPS LGBT NORTHERN CONFERENCE, Staffordshire LGBT History Month is a nationwide event held in February, which is now in its second year. Similar to Black History Month, the aim is to raise awareness of the ‘hidden’ history of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans people. This year, as part of LGBT History Month, GALIPS have organised a members conference. The event will be the first of its kind to be held within an establishment and will be an opportunity to raise awareness of LGBT issues and to give training on particular subjects. Around 80 delegates are expected at the event, mostly from establishments in the North and Midlands. Confirmed speakers at the event include Beverley Thompson from REAG and Stephen Whittle from Press for Change. Delegates will also be able to attend workshops on a number of LGBT issues - Gender identity, Faith & sexuality, LGBT prisoners (run by Mark Leach) and LGBT legislation. The event will be opened by the Governor of HMP/YOI Drake Hall, John Huntington, and closed by the GALIPS chair, Pete Allen. Also 23th February.
