I had a wonderful morning with my daughter representing the Rainbows at the APB Southampton Marathon this morning. We were out on University Road opposite the water station (which was run by the excellent Scouts). Sophie had her pom poms and was dancing away cheering the runners on.

A very sad day for transgender people in the UK. Marginalised further and made to feel less valued and wanted in society. 🏳️‍⚧️ 😢 🤬

Last year #GirlGuidingUK announced that they would no longer allow trans girls to join their groups. I have been volenteering for GirlGuiding for most of my life, and am incredibly sad and angry at this descision. Last night our Brownie unit announced that we would be closing this summer (in part due to this update) and I don't plan on joining anotner unit as it goes against my ethics to give my time to a transphobic organisation.

Literally just seen a Girlguiding TV advert for the first time. Didn't think UK youth organisations would do TV ads. Was on Netflix.

Was a decent advert. I await a Scouts one now.
