Dear NGB,
I am writing to make you aware of a campaign by Sporting Pride and supported by Sport Ireland to coincide with Dublin Pride Health and Wellbeing Week which takes place from June 14th to June 20th 2021. During that week we plan to promote a #LetsGetVisible campaign to demonstrate that sport is inclusive and welcoming for members of the LGBTI+ community.
As part of that campaign we would encourage NGBs to:
1. Add a social media frame to your social media profiles for the week
2. Post using #LetsGetVisible to show your support
We will be issuing a pack to all NGBs prior to June 14th which will contain the social media frames for download; some graphics which you can use in your posts; and some suggested content for social media posts.
We are aware that organisations may already have plans in place to show their support for the LGBTI+ community during Pride month, so we fully appreciate that the above may or may not fit in with those plans.
If you have any questions in the meantime on any of the above please do not hesitate to get in touch with Helen, who is the Diversity, Inclusion and Safeguarding Manager:
