About The Common Press
The Common Press is London’s queer intersectional bookshop located in the heart of Shoreditch, East London. It’s more than just a bookshop; it serves as a vibrant sanctuary for storytelling, queer culture, and community. As an essential third space for the LGBTQIA+ community, it provides a place to socialise and find literature and resources on trans-inclusive feminism, anti-colonialism, anti-fascism, ecopolitics, and self-care. This radical indie bookshop is led by a dedicated group of queer BIPOC, trans, non-binary folks, and queer women, and stocks over 7,000 curated books, including an expansive fiction collection, niche experimental zines, queer parenting manuals, poetry, guides to queer relationships and polyamory, and much more.
About Dope Back Queers
A community collective that sits at the intersections of Black, Queer, and Trans identity. We exist as a means to create intentional space!
About FEELD
Feeld is a dating app for the curious; those open to experiencing people and relationships in new ways. Polyamory, consensual non-monogamy, homo- and heteroflexibility, pansexuality, asexuality, aromanticism, voyeurism, and kink are just a few of the sexual identities and desires that make up the Feeld community.
Special thanks to The Second Home and FEELD.
