I’m excited to be represented by Andrew James at Frog Literary Agency.

It was a joyous moment when a publisher offered on my proposal and I realise how lucky I am.
Can’t go into too much detail at the moment, but the book will discuss both my HIV and my faith.

I am very excited that the 106th Archbishop of Canterbury will be Sarah Mullally. I have known Sarah since my election to the General Synod in 2021. Sarah is the first woman to hold this role within the Church of England. She will be great for our national Church and the Anglican Communion.

The UK has dropped to 22nd on ILGA-Europe’s Rainbow Index. In 2015, we were ranked first!
We must protest the rollback of LGBTQIA+ rights in the UK and internationally.

Today marks nine years since the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida. 49 people were killed and 53 injured. Our thoughts are with their family and friends. Our community continues to face hatred, in the USA and internationally. We must affirm the dignity of LGBTQIA+ lives.
