PETAL’s work began in 2011 with a presentation and discussion on cervical cancer for lesbian and bisexual women. PETAL is the brainchild of founder and coordinator Simone Hill who, in 2003, observed that very little advocacy was being done for the women of the LGBT community. Her decision to do something about the gap in support slowly materialized in her work under UniBAM as the vice president to address some of the needs of the les/bi population.
