International Pronouns Day takes place on the third Wednesday of October each year and is a day that seeks to make respecting, sharing, and educating about pronouns commonplace. This year, we will once again be marking the day on the 20th October and also join with our friends at National Museums Liverpool for a special event on Saturday 23rd.
For trans, non binary and gender nonconforming people, being referred to by the wrong pronouns can have a significant and sometimes devastating effect, as their identity is ignored, devalued and even erased.
We believe that recognising and using a person’s preferred pronouns is a basic human right, which is why LCR Pride Foundation supports International Pronouns Day and uses it to encourage others to learn about pronouns, challenge stigma and discrimination and to normalise the use of chosen personal pronouns in private and social settings and workplaces across the Liverpool City Region.
International Pronouns Day 2021 EventWe will be joining with National Museums Liverpool for a special event at Museum of Liverpool on Saturday 23rd October, 1-4pm.
The event will be an opportunity to reflect, celebrate gender identities and look to the future and Liverpool TDOV next year.
The links below might be helpful to share with friends and colleagues to help them understand the importance of pronouns and supporting their use.

Andi Herring, founder of the LCR Pride Foundation, which delivers Pride in Liverpool among other LGBT+ events across the Liverpool City Region, said: “We are closely monitoring the situation regarding COVID-19 and following Liverpool City Council, government and WHO advice with regard to any LCR Pride Foundation-managed events.
“While the situation is clearly concerning, Our first public event and flagship, Pride in Liverpool, is set to take place on Saturday 25th July. This is in the months beyond current guidance and, as such, we will not be making any immediate decisions. We will, however, be contingency planning and continuing to work with our partners and sponsors to plan a safe and successful event.
“Our board and event management team are reviewing our position regularly and implementing plans in accordance with any updates to government and WHO advice, as well as guidance from the European Pride Organisers Association (EPOA). On current advice we are optimistic that Pride in Liverpool and our annual March with Pride will go ahead. Any changes will be communicated as soon as possible.
For updates please visit lcrpride.co.uk or our social media channels.”
