Valley Brass Band: Commitment to Transgender Inclusion
1 February 2026
Valley Brass Band proudly affirms its commitment to transgender and non-binary inclusion. Following the UK Supreme Court’s April 2025 ruling that defines “sex” under the Equality Act as biological sex at birth, we reaffirm that our values remain unchanged: every member deserves respect, dignity, and full participation.
We will continue to:
- Use correct names and pronouns
- Provide gender-inclusive facilities and uniform options
- Maintain zero tolerance for discrimination
- Listen to and support our transgender and non-binary members
Music is for everyone. Our band stands united in creating a space where all identities are celebrated
