Brianna Ghey

Brianna Ghey was a 16 year old transgender girl living in Cheshire England. On February 11th 2023 she was killed in Culcheth Linear park. She was described by her parents as “larger than life” and was known for helping younger trans girls safely access hormone replacement therapy. She was a beautiful soul who had so many years ahead of her and her death is a tragedy that devastated people worldwide.

In honor of Brianna the second proposed location for this monument is in her hometown, Cheshire England. Her killing is yet another tragedy that shows how important representation, and rights for transgender people, especially children and teens, is. This monument, or even the simple proposal of it, is an attempt to shed further rays of light on the lives of people like Brianna and the need for a progressive path forward.
