17-24-30 No To Hate Crime have signed up to help promote Spirit Day on the 17th October and will be encouraging people to wear purple and join us on a night out in Soho London.
Millions wear purple on Spirit Day in a stand against bullying and to show their support for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth. Observed annually since 2010, individuals, schools, organizations, corporations, and public figures wear purple, which symbolizes ‘spirit’ on the rainbow flag.
Getting involved is easy: Wear purple or go purple online on October 17th and help… create a world in which LGBT youth are celebrated and accepted for who they are.
