Do You Know An LGBTQIA+-Owned Business? Nominate Them For Our Map And We’ll Spread The Word

BWYASSS Map

Ever wanted an Aussie map that shows you every location where you can support LGBTQIA+-run businesses all around the country? Well, luckily for you, we made one! And now, you can nominate your mates’ business to feature on it so everyone can find out about it.

By ourselves, we are just one person, but together, we are a community banding together to support each other.

So, do your friends/family/colleagues/acquaintances who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community run a business? Or are you simply a stan of an LGBTQIA+-run business? The more businesses you nominate, the better in our humble opinion.

All you have to do to nominate is fill in the form below. It’s that simple.
