Listen to Faith, Sex & Me

Author: Poppy DavenportPublished 22nd Jun 2023

June is Pride Month, and in 2022 Hits Radio Pride ran a special series called “Faith Sex & Me”, going to the heart and soul of sexual identity and faith within the LGBTQ+ community. In 2023, at the Sandford St Martin awards (the UK’s most prestigious awards for radio, TV and online programmes & content that explore religious, spiritual or ethical themes), the series was runner-up in the 'young audience' category and picked up gold in the 'radio/audio' category! If you missed it when it was first broadcast, there is a chance to relive all the episodes below.

While often uplifting, religion can also be painful and excluding, and the aim of the series is to hear from people talking about a subject where there is often silence.

Some of the stories contain personal information that may be tough to listen to and if you would like help or advice after listening to one of the episodes, you can always reach out to Switchboard.

Faith, Sex & Me is produced by Loftus Media and supported by the Audio Content Fund
