Pride in health

As an LGBTQ+ person, your health concerns are in most ways the same as everyone else’s.  However, evidence in the UK and internationally indicates increased levels of common mental health conditions, with stigma and discrimination stopping people sometimes reaching out.

We’ll have a mixture of different presenters offering information, ideas and activities including;

• Exploring the links between sexual orientation and mental health
• Talking about gender identity, including transgender and non-binary awareness
• Look at some common myths and the impact of stigma and discrimination
• Thinking about how ways to support a mentally healthy LGBTQ+ community
