Welcome to THE SECOND
Lesbian Visibility WEEK
Launched by DIVA media Group
Our aim is BOTH TO celebrate lesbians and show solidarity with all women in our community. We believe in unity, and lifting up those who are most marginalised. |
As the leading LBTQ media group in Europe, DIVA Media Group reaches an audience of 250,000 users every month. In our engagement we are increasingly finding LGBTQI women feel that they are misunderstood and under supported.
Lesbian Visibility Week aims to show our solidarity with every woman within the LGBTQI community, as well as celebrate lesbians. It is essential that Lesbian Visibility Week is a voice for unity and lifts up ALL women, especially those who come from marginalised communities. Recent research (Pride Matters survey, conducted by Pride In London 2018) has shown that gay women are almost twice as unlikely to be out in the workplace as gay male colleagues.
There has been a Lesbian Visibility Day since 2008.
Building on this, we want to create a week that recognises, celebrates and importantly supports lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer women across the UK and beyond to be their true selves at work, at home and socially.

I feel that all the networking events and spaces are designed for and focused on gay men. It makes me uncomfortable to attend and I feel that impacts on my career and progression. |
I am a lesbian, but don’t feel that I can be open about my sexuality at work. I HOPE THAT A WEEK THAT RAISES AWARENESS WILL HELP ME FIND THE STRENGTH TO DO THAT. |
