If you are LGBT+, live, work or play in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and are aged 50-100 or more, then you can join SAND in The Wave Project to make older and old LGBT+ people across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin more visible.

SAND (Safe Aging No Discrimination) is an inclusive LGBT+ community-facing organisation working across sectors in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin to enhance LGBT+ health & wellbeing in later life.

At the moment SAND is putting photos on their website as they come in – in June 2023 they are planning an exhibition at Shrewsbury’s Museum & Art Gallery!

Photographs can be of individuals or of groups. SAND is aiming for 100 LGBT+ people and ultimately they would like to host an exhibition of your many waving hands.

And if you’d like to help, then please spread the word to family, friends and colleagues!
