Red Ribbon: Jordan Chan on Pride, HIV Awareness & Building Queer Community

In this episode, I sit down with Jordan Chan, activist, Mr Gay Britain finalist, and Chair of Swale Pride, to talk about his journey from surviving brutal bullying in rural Kent to leading change for the queer community.Jordan opens up about his experiences with identity, activism, and the power of visibility. We talk about the Red Ribbon Calendar, his latest charity project raising money for the Terrence Higgins Trust and The Sussex Beacon, both supporting people living with HIV.This episode dives into community, stigma, safe sex, and representation, from the 80s AIDS epidemic to queer joy in shows like It’s A Sin, Pose, Heartstopper, and Love, Simon.🎗️ Featured Links & Recommendations:📸 Jordan’s Instagram: @jordanwch_92🗓️ Buy the Red Ribbon Calendar: https://payhip.com/b/M5bjs?utm_id=1344207247310791_v2_s01_e1001&fbclid=PAZnRzaANQDX1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABpw1CmbGMmX9kHKSibo_SaypTxCRy5WYy1F7bP_l950PslwsgstimgTc13gsE_aem__0xPNX4TFL1x2xDKoO9Qxw🏳️‍🌈 @swalepride_official💖 @thtorguk | @sussexbeacon📷 @mwordsphotography🎬 TV & Film Recs: It’s A Sin, Pose, Pride, Heartstopper, Queer As Folk, Love Simon⚠️ Content warning: Discussions include bullying, homophobia, HIV/AIDS, stigma, and sexual health.
