"I think a lot of people think it will be offensive to ask trans people questions as they’ll be seen as ignorant for not knowing. But that’s not true! I’d rather answer a question than confuse people."

"Visibility, to me, means the idea of fitting in and being recognised & respected in society.

I believe the best way to support the trans community is through acceptance and understanding. It is important for collaboration that we can listen and learn from each other."

"I find it great that there’s a community of people there to support you who have gone through what you are going through. My main difficulty was self-acceptance and doubt in my identity."

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT BRISTOL?

"My favourite thing about Bristol is the views from the tops of hills! The city is stunning from so many angles and there’s always more to explore.

I chose Pero’s bridge [for the photoshoot] as it’s right in the heart of the harbour. And also the Christmas steps as it’s so beautiful from the top."
