Trans in the City is an open collaboration between global organisations, corporates and companies to further the inclusion of transgender, non-binary and gender diversity in business, with over 250 organisations worldwide.
The partnership is the first multi-year exclusive media partnership for PinkNews, which will support Trans in the City through editorial and social content to the PinkNews global audience.
Benjamin Cohen, CEO of PinkNews said: “Trans rights have been increasingly targeted by traditional media and used by the UK’s political parties since 2019. The current government’s decision to continue to exclude conversion therapy for trans people within the Gender Recognition Act only fuels hatred and a false narrative, one of which PinkNews wholeheartedly rejects. Our aim is to inform our audience, inspire change and empower people to be themselves. Trans in the City is an important organisation which is rightly leading the way in providing a supportive community for those currently marginalised and educating trans inclusivity in the workplace.”
Bobbi Pickard, CEO of Trans in the City commented: “Trans in the City was formed five years ago to raise trans and non-binary awareness in global and UK business, to tell the truth about trans and non-binary people, to celebrate their successes and show how they are a valuable part of our society. PinkNews is the voice of our community at a time when so much of the media spreads misdirection and mistruths about us – that's why I'm so glad and excited to be collaborating with them as our media partner to bring the truth to a wider audience.”
