March 31 marks International Transgender Day of Visibility. It’s a day when we can celebrate our trans and non-binary friends and acknowledge the journeys and the struggles of our trans friends.

In this episode, activist and founding member of Under the Rainbow Philippa Ryder joins me as we chat about where we're at in Ireland in the quest for trans visibility, equality, representation, inclusion; and what the cisgender community can do to support our trans friends.

Under The Rainbow is an award winning inclusive Social Enterprise advocating for human rights, equality, and a world where people can be their true selves. You can find out more about Philippa and Under the Rainbow online at www.undertherainbow.ie

Philippa's wonderful memoir is available in all good book shops and also through Mercier Press online here Its a powerful book in which Philippa offers answers to many questions people ask, genuinely, to understand what it means to be transgender.

We also mention TENI who do wonderful work creating a world where all people, regardless of gender identity or expression, enjoy full acceptance, equality and human rights. You can find out more about TENI at teni.ie
