The Royal College of Occupational Therapists (ROCT) wishes all its LGBT+ members, staff and allies and to anyone celebrating a happy Global Pride Day.
RCOT is committed to LGBT+ equality, diversity and inclusion across occupational therapy. Global Pride Day is a great opportunity for its members to be loud and proud of who they are and celebrate the fantastic work they do.
RCOT Chief Executive Julia Scott said:
"Happy Global Pride Day to all our members and anyone celebrating today. Global Pride Day is a great time to celebrate the amazing contribution that all our LGBT+ members and staff make to occupational therapy across the UK.
“Sadly we know all too well that some of our members face discrimination for simply being themselves. I want to reiterate that RCOT is committed to supporting all of our LGBT+ members, staff and allies to feel confident and safe in their work environments. No one should face discrimination.”
This year Global Price Day is taking place online. Follow #GlobalPride to take part in the events.
