The Trans Unity Quilt

The Trans Unity Quilt is almost ready to unveil and we need your help!

Campaign overview

Inspired by the history of textile protest art, the Trans Unity Quilt is a giant patchwork quilt, made by and for trans people and allies across the UK. We’re weaving our stories together into a tangible symbol of our diversity and resilience. We’re carrying the quilt through London with London Trans+ Pride on Saturday July 25th, and we need volunteers to join us in making a big, beautiful statement of trans community and strength. All 96 metres of the quilt have been divided into 12 panels, complete with handles – will you come and carry it with us?

What

 

The Trans Unity Quilt – all 96 meters of it – is almost ready to unveil, and we need your help! We’re carrying the quilt through London with London Trans+ Pride on Saturday July 25th, and we need volunteers to join us in making a big, beautiful statement of trans community and strength.

The Quilt is divided into 12 panels, complete with handles – will you come and carry it with us?


Who

 

Trans people and our friends, families, and wider communities – we’d love to hear from you all. Walkers and wheelchair users are equally welcome, and handles can be held or clipped to a wheelchair frame. It will be a long day outside, with no guarantee of the weather, so we suggest suitable preparation: footwear, clothing, and personal supplies. Trans+ Pride is a busy event with large crowds, and volunteers will need to be prepared to pick up, put down, and move the quilt with some stopping and starting.

We’re here to make reasonable adjustments, but do let us know in advance so that we can support your specific needs.


When and where

 

Morning to afternoon, Saturday July 25th, near Portland Place W1B – exact location to be provided before the event.


How

 

Please complete this simple form. Volunteers will be required to attend an online training safety session prior to July 25th, which will include all key information and safety information. If you have any questions at this stage, please email

transunityquilt@goodlawproject.org

Once you sign up, we will reach out to those of you who have requested support with accessibility needs individually.

Your personal data will be held by Good Law Project, and may be shared with lead organisers on the day to make sure that you are kept safe and to provide any accessibility adjustments you require.

Thank you so much – we can’t wait to see you!
