BoP receives NICE Award for good journalism on trans issues

Feeling jaded and cynical as I often do, it’s a rare thing for any blog comment to provoke a “Woo! Yay! Hoopla!” moment, but I’m delighted to have found just such a comment in the mod queue earlier today. Paris Lees at the Gender Trust Blog stopped by to let me know (link here) that Bird of Paradox has won their “NICE Award for good journalism on trans issues” this week.

(The Gender Trust is a UK-based organisation whose mission is “to improve the quality of life of trans people and their families by supporting them and working with anyone who is affected by gender identity issues”)

I’m absolutely chuffed to conkers about this but will spare you all a rambling Hollywood style speech and simply say thank you everyone, I’m really happy to receive this acknowledgement.
