In the third episode of our Taking Pride series, we explore the vital role of allyship in creating safe, respectful spaces for LGBTQIA+ colleagues—especially those who may be vulnerable or marginalised.
We’re joined by the courageous and articulate Sophie, who shares deeply personal stories of moments where a lack of allyship turned already challenging experiences into something far more painful. Her reflections highlight why recognising, respecting, and celebrating differences isn’t just nice to have—it’s essential.
This episode is a call to action for all of us to notice when support is needed and to have the courage to stand by someone or call others in with compassion and clarity.
