Statement on the Closure of The Scottish Bi+ Network

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of The Scottish Bi+ Network due to an ongoing lack of members and volunteers. Despite our tireless efforts to engage with the community and continue our work advocating for and supporting bisexual, pansexual, and fluid individuals across Scotland, we have unfortunately reached a point where we no longer have the resources or active support necessary to continue our operations.

Over the years, The Scottish Bi+ Network has strived to be a safe and inclusive space, offering a platform for individuals to connect, raise awareness, and fight for the rights and recognition of the Bi+ community. The dedication and passion of our members and volunteers have been the backbone of this organization, and we are deeply grateful for all who have contributed to our journey.

We understand that this closure will be a significant loss for many, and we share in the disappointment of having to bring our work to an end. However, we encourage the community to continue seeking support from other organizations and to stay united in the fight for equality and understanding for all members of the LGBTQ+ spectrum.

We are incredibly proud of all that we have achieved together, and we will continue to carry the spirit of The Scottish Bi+ Network with us as we move forward. Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years - your contributions have made a real difference.

While the Network may be closing its doors, the need for Bi+ representation and support remains as important as ever. We hope that new initiatives will rise to carry on the work we began, and we remain committed to the values of inclusion, visibility, and advocacy for the Bi+ community.

With gratitude and respect,

The Scottish Bi+ Network
