The safer space policy is about creating an open and welcoming environment so that everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community and allies feel able and comfortable to participate in FOTJA activities. In order to help us do this, we have some guidelines:
- Zero tolerance to racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, ableism, ageism, fatphobia, body shaming or slut shaming.

- Respect other people’s personal space, do not touch anyone unless you have express consent to do so.
- Do not assume anyone’s gender, if in doubt ask or use gender-neutral pronouns until specified otherwise.
Friends of the Joiners Arms understand that this policy is and should be dynamic and change as we learn and grow together.
Friends of the Joiners Arms also understand that we all make mistakes. If your behaviour is addressed, please do not become defensive, instead, take the opportunity to reflect and learn. ***
