We've launched a LGBTQ+ travel index which shows the best and worst cities to visit. Everyone deserves to be unapologetically themselves every day, including on vacation. 🏳️‍🌈 We're keen to shine a light on the community so drop me a DM or email ruth@rootdigital.co.uk for more info. #journorequest

Our LGBTQ+ travel index is something that shouldn't need to exist, but unfortunately it's needed. Especially in today's climate. If your birth family is struggling with acceptance, I hope you get unlimited love from your chosen family. You have this Mama in your corner and always will. 🌈

When a journo replies to say that they're covering your client's campaign less than an hour after launch. Even better when it's seasonal. Amazing work from the Root team to get that cut through.
