The Be Yourself Be Proud LGBT+ Project is a supportive and inclusive environment where young LGBT+ people aged 13 to 17 can get accurate, impartial information and guidance on a range of issues including sexual orientation, gender identity, and related topics. The project prioritises safety and confidentiality, ensuring young people have a space to express themselves without fear of discrimination. Typically, the project will include strategies around face to face and online bullying, emotional and mental health support to develop skills in self-advocacy, assertiveness, coping mechanisms and self-care.
The project runs every week during term time.
