Join us for a social mingling after the panel hosted by Amnesty UK "Reading for resistance" dedicated to the promotion of queer stories and a campaign against rising LGBTQ+ censorship.

We have been invited to join Amnesty UK at The Rose Theatre in Kingston Upon Thames to hear from an incredible panel of speakers, including:
-Dean Atta, BAFTA award-winning screenwriter and Stonewall Book Award-winning author; Juliet Jacques, acclaimed author, filmmaker and cultural commentator whose work has appeared in The Guardian, London Review of Books, The New York Times and The Washington Post;
-Dr Alison Hicks, Associate Professor at UCL whose groundbreaking research into the growing threat of book bans within UK school libraries has recently been picked up by The Guardian and The Independent.
More speakers will be announced soon.

Participants will access the event for free at 19:30 at The Rose Theatre in Kingston Upon Thames. By expressing their interest to participate to Sharon at Sharon.Dann@kingstonlgbtforum.org.uk you will be offered a voucher to purchase the ticket for free here

The main event will end at 8:30 pm, when the LGBTQ+ Kingston Forum will be happy to welcome you all to mingle and enjoy a social gathering at the bar of The Rose Theatre, Kingston. Look out for Lucy & Sharon who will be hosting the social mingling and will be happy to introduce new people to the rest of the group.
