Derbyshire LGBT+ is hosting a new Family Peer Support Group starting on the 4th June! They have had many parents, carers and relatives asking for a space where they can ask questions - here it is:
- 4.30-6pm
- 4th June, then monthly on the first Tues of the month
- at Becket Family Hub, 35 Stockbrook St, Derby DE22 3WR (2 min drive from our Derby community centre)
It is a space for members of LGBT+ families to chat, offload, get advice and connect with others who are or have been on similar journeys. You can join in with a question in mind, use the group as a space to share experiences or lend a listening ear to others.
Whether the media talk is getting you down, you’re looking for advice on how to support your family member, want to learn more about what language to use when talking about the LGBT+ community, or anything else, you’re welcome to join in.
The groups are led by qualified, experienced LGBT+ staff and a supporting volunteer who are DBS checked, with active safeguarding procedures to protect attendees. You can meet our Families Worker who is hosting the session at https://www.derbyshirelgbt.org.uk/meet-the-staff
The venue is wheelchair accessible and there is free parking onsite.
Booking is required - email Families Worker Sonia at soniat@derbyshirelgbt.org.uk or call us on 01332 207 704 If you have any questions, get in touch.
