Not considerate of dyslexia. How’s that for equality

Most of it was okay - however, there were some LGBTQ+ sections I think need changing. Intersex people should be mentioned in the sex section, as this is their actual sex, (e.g. "UK law recognises sex as the sex you were assigned at birth, either male or female. Not everyone fits into this. For example, there are intersex people, who are born with a mixture of sex characteristics, or transgender people, whose gender identity does not match the sex they were assigned at birth. For the purposes of this section, we will discuss differential treatment of men and women based on the law's understanding of sex, but will return to discrimination based on being transgender and other gender-related topics in the gender reassignment section.") and then mentioned again later in the gender reassignment section; not all intersex people are transgender, so I think it deserves to be mentioned elsewhere. Also, not all nonbinary people use gender neutral pronouns - saying it is "harmful" to refer to a nonbinary person using she or he might confuse people if they meet a nonbinary person with, say, she/they pronouns. Instead, perhaps something like this would work: "Although the most commonly used pronouns are 'she' and 'he', many people use other pronouns that better fit their gender identity. 'They' is a common gender neutral option - think about if you received an email from someone but weren't sure of their gender. You might, in a conversation with someone else, refer to them as 'they'. This is the same for people who choose to use this pronoun. Other gender neutral examples include [insert list of pronouns here - I was honestly surprised by how many you included there, so kudos]. Some people may even use multiple sets of pronouns, like she and he or he and they. It is important to ask individuals about which pronouns they use so that you can refer to them correctly and so they can feel respected in the workplace." Also, at one point you referred to 'male and female' and then 'transgender' separately - many transgender people do still identify as men and women, so the distinction is unnecessary/incorrect.

You fell into your own trap of stereotyping and discrimination with both the "actors" segments in part 10 and 20 where the wrongdoer was portrayed by a white, balding middle aged man. I found this quite offensive.

very inclusive
good
Generally helpful but a few of the examples are tenuous. You seem to conflate race with nationality, these aren't the same and given that you don't distinguish between ethnicity and race, becomes problematic. Also, your resources speak of "people of colour and black" people. Really, is that the best label you could find?
