BiSpace runs regular virtual events providing opportunities for members of the community to network, socialise and gain support and education. Sunny has been involved in LGBT+ advocacy since being at Sheffield University in the late 90s. Sunny joined the Civil Service in 2003 and lives in Cumbria with a husband, daughter and two cats.
