On 8 July 2023 we joined Trans Pride to advocate for the rights and empowerment of the transgender community. On the day we were equipped with litter-picking tools marching as a testament to our commitment to our Trans community bringing not only attention to trans rights but also addressed the impact litter has on the environment and ultimately on ourselves and our communities.

By turning litter into art, NJA encouraged London Trans Pride attendees to engage and take action, fostering visibility and a sense of unity among participants and spectators alike. The litter-picking activity during the march wasn’t just about cleaning up the streets, it aimed to address the broader impact of waste. 

Our fabulous NJA volunteers, alongside anyone willing to participate, joined forces to collect rubbish during the Trans Pride litter-pick. The materials we found served as the venture point for a visually striking artwork that incorporated a pride flag design. The artwork was a powerful symbol of unity, showcasing a collective effort to protect all life on our planet.

The collaboration between Norwood JunKAction and London Trans Pride for the 2023 march materialised the transformative power of collective action.
