RJ CHACE (HE/HIM) IS A SPEAKER ON INTERSECTIONALITY, TRANS/NON BINARY EQUALITY AND A VOCAL ACTIVIST FOR THE RIGHTS OF LGBTQIA+ AND THE BLACK COMMUNITY.
As a Director at TransActual UK he continues to strive to change UK legislation for trans and non-binary equality, tackling hate crime and raises the Black Queer intersectionality question in all forums. His recent appointment as the Trustee and Treasurer at LGBT+ Consortium has given him the opportunity to continue to help the community with their grant funding and to advocate for them through chairing panels at the London Assembly and submitting evidence at the Healthcare Committee. Rico is also one of the few selected to be on the UN's UNITE 2030 Youth Delegate Programme.
As a semi-finalist on Channel 4’s Make Me Prime Minister he was commended for his integrity and compassion by Baroness Sayeeda Warsi. To represent the Black Trans community Rico has been the face of Coppafeel, UK Civil Service and GAP campaigns.
