INTRODUCING…. Q DURHAM
Hi, our names are Adam and Dane, and we’re from Q Durham. This is a social network where young lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) people under the age of 25 can meet to feel safe, secure and supported.
The service aims to reduce inequalities for these groups of young people. The group meets on Tuesday evenings in Durham, providing an opportunity for young LGB people to meet in an accessible, comfortable, safe place for support, advice and information on issues relating to their health and well-being.
We have campaigned for World Aids Day and LGB rights. The reason we believe in campaigning for youth rights is because we think people are being watched by police just because they are young – and people feel unwanted in their own community just because of their age.
Being part of Hearing Unheard Voices will help us to build the skills and resources to be able to campaign about the rights of LGB young people, particularly focusing on education and sexual relationships.
