This month, we had the privilege of speaking with Teri-Ann Baldwin, a dedicated Head Veterinary Nurse at our clinic in Wales, and the nurse liaison on the committee for the BVLQBTQ community. “Growing up in a typical Welsh Valleys community I very much hid my sexuality for a long time; even as a teenager growing up in the 2000s there still seemed to be a stigma surrounding being part of the LGBTQIA community. I decided not to really come out as such, but I just started living how I wanted to without apologising or having to justify myself to others. I started to openly share LGBTQIA articles, pictures and memes and if people didn't like it then I simply didn't need them in my life.  A few years ago, I really started to question my gender identity and after a lot of internal reflection, I realised that the term non-binary fit me and have been using they/them pronouns.  As a member of the LGBTQIA community I would have no hesitations in recommending LGBTQIA colleagues or clients to come to this clinic. We still have a long way to go within the profession and I hope that my story helps others understand how their lack of willing to understand or accommodate people of different sexual orientation and genders impacts the individual. Now, more than ever, we need to support each other. We also need our non-LGBTQIA colleagues to support us outwardly and not with performative allyship. Luckily, my colleagues at Medivet Merthyr Tydfil have been nothing short of amazing and supportive with all that I throw at them!”  If you’re a member of the LGBTQIA community, coming into the Veterinary world you’re able to reach out to multiple support groups. As Teri-Ann shares,   “A lot of colleges and universities can now signpost students and professionals towards BVLGBT , there are also a wide range of organisations which can help the community coming in. Vetlife , Samaritans and the Switchboard - National LGBTQ Support Line are all available to help.   The BVLGBT Committee is also available for colleagues to sign up to and become part of a supportive community.” A big thank you to Teri-Ann Baldwin for sharing their story. To find out more the BVLGBTQ community, you can learn more about what they do, how you can get involved and look at how to find support here: www.bvlgbt.org #Medivet #PrideMonth

Meet our Medivet Camberwell Branch Partners, Bruno and Bert, who shared their story for Pride.  Bruno shares: “Being a vet is not easy. The worry about misdiagnosis, the bleeding spays, and the heaving waiting room are some of the common worries of our daily life. Add to this, the insecurities of self-doubt of having imposter syndrome, something we’re all familiar with from the start of our careers; it all gets quite overwhelming. And then to top it all – if you identify as LGBTQ , it’s the fear of discrimination, the feeling that your mannerisms are being watched, the thought of ‘not being taken seriously’ if they find out – adds even more pressure to the idea of how one should look and behave in the workplace. I am now a Branch Partner, and I couldn’t be prouder of the place I work in. Bert and I thrive to create an open and friendly environment for everyone. We know there is always space for improvement, so we recently took the team to Drag Bingo, it was a hit, and it might become a usual!” Bert goes on to say: “Since working at Medivet, I have always felt comfortable sharing this part of my identity. Over the years working in this field, I have learned to appreciate the beauty in our differences.”  We all have a responsibility to make this world a better place. Those words may sound grand, but even the smallest gesture can make a difference to someone who is struggling; a cup of tea and a catch up, having interest in what they did over the weekend or simply by putting up a pride flag.  If you're facing challenges, remember there are wonderful support groups like Vetlife , Samaritans, and Switchboard - National LGBTQ Support Line ready to help.     #Medivet #PrideMonth #PrideAwareness #BranchPartnership

To continue Pride month, we want to share Deputy Head Veterinary Nurse, Kirsty's story. “I have been very supported and accepted within my team and at my workplace, as well as in the wider community. I feel like I’m able to speak freely about my life and share this with my work colleagues. I know that every person is different, and everyone has their own struggles; different backgrounds and work settings. I would love for everyone to be able to express themselves freely and be confident to speak their truth without judgement being passed. My message to everyone is to be kind, have open minds, and to not judge and be accepting of everyone’s individual lifestyles, feelings, beliefs and values.” If you're facing challenges, remember there are wonderful support groups like Vetlife , Samaritans, and Switchboard - National LGBTQ Support Line ready to help. #Medivet #PrideMonth #PrideAwareness
