Anti-bullying organisation, Ditch The Label, teamed up with Club and Bar Revenge and Brighton’s award winning lesbian club night ‘Girls On Top’ to raise funds and awareness this August and September, raising over £100 in the process.
Ditch The Label’s mission statement says:
“It doesn’t matter if you’re white, black, gay, straight, asexual, disabled, skinny, curvy, old, young, interested in sports, work in a salon or feel good in drag – we think that you are amazing.
“Things like the colour of your skin, your sexuality, appearance, interests or disability should not define you. Together we can and will reduce the prominence and harmful effects of bullying.”
Liam Hackett from ‘Ditch the Label’, said:
“The support that we have received from Revenge has been absolutely fantastic. We think that it is important to actively engage with people from different walks of life and at all points on the age spectrum and our relationship with Revenge has helped us do exactly just that.”
Alex Baker from Club Revenge said:
“Large numbers of the LGBT community experience bullying, not just in the stereotypical classroom and playground settings, but on in to later life in the work place and even at home. Ditch The Label provides a great resource to anyone who has, or is experiencing this kind of mistreatment”.
