LGBT*Q+ HISTORY MONTH

LGBT*Q+ History Month project

Through our annual LGBT*Q+ History month events we:

  • Claim our past
  • Celebrate our present
  • Create our future
Led by young LGBT*Q+ people our LGBT*Q+ History Month events have included performances, long table discussions with strategic decision makers, resources and publications and have even been featured on BBC television and radio.

We are committed to highlighting the important role and impact of many LGBT*Q+ people throughout history.

Educating young LGBT+ people and the wider community about the LGBT*Q+ people who have gone before and fought for the rights and opportunities we have today.

I've made friends I absolutely love, and I don’t feel alone.

It is cool, it gives me a space to chill between school and stuff.

It's helped me develop my confidence and has also helped me sort out my identity.

It has made me feel more accepted and supported as a young LGBTQ+ person, and more comfortable with myself.

It creates a fun and comfortable environment whilst also addressing serious and educational topics.
