This week we talk to a dear friend of mine, Howie Howells. Some people may be familiar with Howie from Channel 4 Genderquake.
Howie talks about the mental struggles she’s suffered growing up gay in an environment which didn’t speak about it nor really welcome it in.
We discuss the power of a world becoming more gender neutral and the mental health epidemic amongst the LGBTQI+ community.
Charities Howie references:
AKT - <a href="http://www.akt.org.uk/">www.akt.org.uk</a> for LGBTQ+ youth homelessness
Mermaids - <a href="http://www.mermaidsuk.org.uk/">www.mermaidsuk.org.uk</a> Helping gender-diverse kids, young people and their families
