SEVEN members of Sussex police staff have taken part in a national video released today (Friday, May 17) as part of this year’s International Day Against Homophobia (IDAHO). Entitled It Gets Better, the video has been put together as part of the global campaign to end homophobic hate and reduce suicide among young lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people. Sixteen police forces – including Sussex – have participated in the video which tells the stories of 36 LGBT police officers and staff. It offers messages of support and encouragement to LGBT youngsters who are struggling with their sexual identity or bullied for being ‘different’. The officers tell their collective story about the challenge of growing up and living their lives as LGBT people. They say suicide is not the answer, suggesting people seek the help of trusted people around them if they are being bullied and call the police if they are experiencing hate crime.
