Why Join Welcome With Pride?
What LGBTIQ+ guests have to say
“The [Welcome With Pride] accreditation makes me feel so safe. I want to give my money to people and businesses that support my safety, well being and dignity.”
“Until you have had to think about every sentence that you say, worrying about being ‘discovered’, you cannot truely understand how stressful seemingly ordinary situations can be. This accreditation will take away that anxiety and allow me to enjoy my stay with you.”
“Training is so important! It’s so apparent and appreciated when you can FEEL that the place you’re staying at respects you.”
“We engaged Charlie at Welcome With Pride to deliver an LGBTIQ+ inclusivity workshop, which exceeded our expectations. Welcome With Pride has equipped us with a clear, actionable pathway to attract LGBTIQ+ visitors and build WA’s reputation as a leading inclusive destination. I highly recommend Charlie and Welcome With Pride.”
