This 2.5 hour online workshop is for staff at all levels (including managers and volunteers) who’d like to learn how to better include and support LGBTQ service users and colleagues.

This webinar will support participants to take steps to take to reduce inequalities, become better LGBTQ allies and improve support for LGBTQ people accessing services or working within teams.

The session is interactive, engaging and reflective and will provide a safe environment for participants to understand some of the challenges and inequalities that LGBTQ communities experience.
