Lesbian Page
Aurora has tackled a couple of faith, asylum, and ethnic issues. Forced marriage is a big problem.
But we have very little lesbian support.
Aurora has always known of local hate incidents and hate crimes that arise just because lesbian couples tend to be recognisable and are easy to target. Lesbian parents are often easier to identify and therefore easier to target. Sometime the initial incident is followed by persistent, pointed awkwardness to make a couple thoroughly unwelcome and miserable.
Aurora speaks to local women who report these problems, but almost no one comes along or speaks up.
So although there's quite a bit on the Aurora website for you, you would be really welcome if you joined in.
If you can't easily get to meetings, you can still join the e-group, speak to a community member of Aurora, e-mail or write in anonymously.
