Protect LGBTIQ+ people in NSW

Tell us your story

Everyone deserves to be free to express who they are, without fear. 

But anti-LGBTIQ+ hate is rising across Australia, driven by increasingly organised extremists.

NSW Premier Chris Minns has just announced that the LGBTIQ+ community will not be included in reforms that could have protected our community from those who intentionally promote hatred.

Our community is no stranger to the harm that hate causes. That's why the Premier needs to hear from you.

Can you take a moment to send through your own personal story of hate? We'll ensure your stories are brought to the Premier himself.

With your help, we can make sure our stories make a difference.

What does hate look like?

  • Slurs
  • Vandalism
  • Graffiti
  • Threats and harassment (online and in-person)
  • Intimidation and;
  • Physical violence

This action is voluntary. If this topic is too upsetting for you, please take care and contact the numbers below:
