February is LGBT+ History Month


While this is formally recognised in the UK, it’s a useful moment here in Australia to pause and reflect on queer history, resilience, and the ongoing impact of activism, community care, and resistance.


LGBT+ history is not abstract or distant. It shapes how safety, identity, family, healthcare, and education are experienced today.


Many of the rights and protections we now rely on exist because people challenged exclusion at great personal cost.


Honouring this history matters, not as nostalgia, but as context. It reminds us that wellbeing is never just individual.


It is social, political, relational, and deeply shaped by who has been allowed to exist openly and who has not.


This month is an invitation to learn, to remember, and to stay attentive to whose stories are still being sidelined.

I acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land where I live and work, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nations. I acknowledge that this land was never ceded and always was, always will be Aboriginal land. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging.

I celebrate, value and include people of all backgrounds, genders, sexualities, cultures, age groups, spiritual beliefs, physical abilities and disabilities.
