Upcoming webinar: Prosecuting Parents and Pastors

You are invited to a 45-minute webinar we’re holding jointly with The Christian Institute on Government plans for a ‘conversion therapy’ law. The free webinar will take place on Thursday 23 January at 12:30pm and will be live on YouTube.

The Westminster Government is expected to publish its draft conversion therapy Bill for England and Wales soon. The Scottish Government has asked Westminster to legislate on its behalf, and there is a possibility the legislation might also apply to Northern Ireland.

The proposed law is not about tackling genuine abuse – since that is already illegal – but about criminalising the expression of certain opinions. Prayer, pastoral conversations, and parental guidance are all at risk.

Activists want the criminal law to force people to affirm their ideology. They want to prevent Christians from expressing mainstream, traditional beliefs about sexuality and gender. And they want to stop parents from discouraging their children from gender transition and sexual experimentation.

With so much at stake, it’s crucial we get informed and active now.

Please join us to hear about the difference you can make.
