The Right to Self Determination - Noone has the right to be homophobic...Noone has the right to destroy the planet

GaydarRadio Heroes Awards

Thanks GayDar Radio - was great speaking to you. A good space for reflection on the connections between our own sense of justice and striving against bigger oppressions. Here's to continuing to build a movement between the environmental justice and LGBTQ movements....



GaydarRadio is delighted to announce the results of the inaugural GaydarRadio Heroes Awards. The Awards honour the people that make a significant contribution to our lives and were the culmination of our Heroes Season, a celebration of everything LGBT that proves we are all heroes.

Over eight weeks GaydarRadio honoured the everyday heroes with a series of interviews with people from the LGBT community. Each week guests talked about the heroes who had influenced their lives, before being crowned our Hero of the Week!

Listeners were asked to nominate the people they think make a significant contribution to our lives. The top five finalists in each category were then pitted against one another and the public asked to vote for the most heroic recipients. Over 17,000 votes were cast in the final stages.

GaydarRadio congratulates this year’s winners and runners up for their achievements and wishes them yet more success in the future.

Listen to the interviews building bridges between LGBT, Queer and Environmental Justice Groups - in the format of people finding the confidence of coming out and being themselves X
