Many service providers request this training to gain a better understanding of the barriers which LGBTQ+ people may experience when accessing their services. Much of the evidence we draw upon for these sessions is based on up-to-date research findings including research we have conducted locally with LGBTQ+ people. We can offer this as full day or half day sessions.
At the end of the training, delegates will:
- Have a greater awareness of the issues affecting lesbian, gay, bisexual trans and queer/questioning people

- Begin to develop ideas around how you can improve the services that you deliver to LGBTQ+ people
