Why GSRD?
The GPTI community started an open dialogue last year on the theme of Gender, Sexuality, and Relationship
Diversity (GSRD) and agreed that this would be continued and expanded at the residential conference. In
responding to this, GPTI wanted to offer the opportunity to explore our understanding and felt a sense of our
experience, and the ways we resonate (or don’t) within our wider situations
Comments and responses from the Lancaster conference
“This event has made it possible to voice what otherwise has been invisible… unvoiceable.”

“Participants spoke of the fractures in friendships when they found themselves across the ‘divide’ of
Trans-positive/Transphobic debate. This really is the precipice for me and one I am committed to continue to
approach and address but IT IS NOT EASY!”

“GSRD means that everyone here is implicated, not just those in a minority.”
