Activities

'It carries out activities or services itself'

'the promotion of equality and diversity'

We are set up to provide support to local LGBT+ people in the Scottish Borders as well as helping to provide information to organisations that want to improve how inclusive they are for LGBT+ people in the Scottish Borders. We do this by hosting a monthly LGBT+ meet up in the central Borders area which includes an information stand and take this information stand to other events we are invited to. For organisations we can go in and run informal group workshops and provide one to one sessions to help staff understand what they can do to better support LGBT+ people in the Scottish Borders.

Beneficiaries: 'Other defined groups'
