For those of you able to watch Coronation Street, and are not doing so already, I recommend catching up on the developing storyline involving characters Rana (played by Bhavna Limbachia) and Kate (played by Faye Brookes).
I won’t leave any spoilers here.
If you are experiencing any of the issues highlighted in this storyline, you are not on your own. Help & support is available if you are experiencing religious/cultural homophobia, ‘honour based abuse’ or disownment.
If anyone has been affected by Rana’s story & need someone to talk to please contact @nazandmatt -hello@nazandmattfoundation.org | or
