LGBTQ+ Awareness for Care Providers

Join us for this in person training event that aims to increase awareness and understanding of LGBTQ+ issues among care providers. This event will provide valuable insights and practical strategies to create inclusive and affirming environments for LGBTQ+ individuals. Whether you are a healthcare professional, social worker, or caregiver, this event is for you! Learn about the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community and gain the knowledge needed to offer culturally competent care. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your skills and make a positive impact on the lives of LGBTQ+ individuals.

This three hours course (with breaks) will support you to identify ways to ensure inclusive practice within your organisation and how to effectively share these with other colleagues.

Open to all Northamptonshire based care providers, we offer 3 free spaces per organisation, and a discounted rate of £25 per person above this thanks to our friends at the National Lottery Community Foundation.

Organized by

The North Northants LGBT+ Forum is made up of different organisations across North Northamptonshire, and members of the public, with a vested LGBT+ interest.

We work toward making North Northamptonshire a more inclusive place to work and live.

To do this the forum acts as a coordinated, and representative, voice for the LGBT+ community within North Northamptonshire by bringing together community groups, and the council, to discuss issues facing the LGBTQ+ community, work together on solutions, and support one another on initiatives.

It's not all talk and no action though! The forum works toward an ever-evolving action plan to promote and organise events across the LGBT+ calendar. By increasing visibility of services, and through initiatives that help inform the wider public of issues, the forum works to help make North Northamptonshire a great place to live.
