Trans and Non-Binary Dog Walk
Join us in Queen’s Park for a short spring time stroll with your pet pooch. Don’t have a dog? That’s OK, you’re still welcome to come!
We’ll aim to take in some of the sights while letting the dogs meet and play. If you are bringing your pooch, please walk them responsibly.
Exact meeting area will be given by email, nearer to the event, to those who have signed up/registered.
This event is for all trans and nonbinary people aged 16+.
We welcome all trans identities including trans female/feminine, trans male/masculine, genderqueer, and nonbinary identities, as well as intersex people, and people who cross-dress.
We also welcome people with trans history or who are exploring their gender identity.
Spaces are limited, so please register in advance via Eventbrite.
Each registration is for one person.
You’ll receive a confirmation email.
If you need help or can’t attend, contact Eve at eve@lgbthealth.org.uk or phone 0141 255 1767 .
Please let us know if your plans change. You can cancel your space on Eventbrite or contact Eve.
There are multiple entrances and exits to Queen’s Park – all are wheelchair accessible, although entering at Langside Road does present a steep walk into the park.
Queen’s Park does have some hilly areas – we will walk within the capabilities of the attendees on the day.
There is an accessible toilet located within the Glasshouse. For full details see Accessable.
Remember to dress with the weather in mind!
For everyone (and every dog) to get the best out of our walk, here are some things to keep in mind:
1) Consider how your dog responds to meeting people and other dogs. Some dogs might be aggressive, scared or anxious in certain situations, while others just want to play!
2) Just like people, some dogs need more space than others. We’ll keep this in mind as we walk.
3) Remember to keep your dog on a lead.
4) For information, there are two ponds in the park.
5) Lastly, the practical stuff: remember to take what you need with you for your dog. e.g. poo bags, a portable bowl and water, treats.
All LGBT Health and Wellbeing’s events are delivered under a safer spaces commitment that we ask everyone to follow (this includes attendees, our staff and volunteers).
