LGBTQIA+ Inclusion
WHAT WE OFFER
Our LGBTQIA+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex and Asexual) Inclusion Training will give your team a solid understanding of how to build inclusive practice for, and break down the barriers experienced by, staff and service users who are LGBTQIA+. There is a particular focus on intersectionality to explore how to best support LGBTQIA+ people who sit at the most marginalised intersections of society.
​
Our 1 day course will lay the foundations for your team exploring key terminology related to LGBTQIA+ communities, discuss the history of legislation impacting LGBTQIA+ people in the UK and leave them with an understanding of how discrimination occurs in the workplace.
​
Our 2 day course takes this further by introducing practices and approaches teams can take to build inclusive workplaces. There is also an opportunity to explore existing policies and discuss how to refine these to be even stronger for supporting LGBTQIA+ staff and service users.

Praise for LGBTQIA+ Inclusion Training
"[This training] highlighted really clearly the recency that many LGBTQIA+ laws came into play and how much can change in such a small space of time."
WORKSHOP ATTENDEE
"This programme also opened my eyes to the types of discrimination that the LGBTQIA+ people face and it's something I was shocked about and the insight really helped me to understand their journeys and stories."
