We believe that people who are affected by issues, should have the right to lead on them. We are adamant that our members who self-define with any of our equality strands should have a voice and we will support where they want us to.
We want you to have a voice and would love for you to get involved and there are lots of ways to do so. You can contact equality.london@gmb.org.uk if you would like to get in touch.
