LGBT+ Inclusion in Schools
As we celebrate a great step forwards for LGBT inclusion in England’s schools, we want to support our local Teesside schools to become inclusive for young people who identify as LGBT+.
From September 2020 all secondary schools will be required to teach pupils about sexual orientation and gender identity, and all primary schools will be required to teach about different families, which can include LGBT families.
Our specialist team have created a training package that is directly tailored to help meet national requirements.
- Includes 1-hour policy writing and a feedback report
We can train your students to become LGBT Advocates!

LGBT+ Inclusion in Care Homes
‘Research has shown that as well as encountering discrimination in healthcare, older LGBT+ people also face prejudice in residential, nursing and assisted care, leading them to either hide their sexuality or discard those options for their care’
Do you want to ensure your care home is inclusive to LGBT+ residents?
- Package deal includes 1-hour policy writing and a feedback report
Age With Pride was a research project looking into the needs of elderly LGBT clients in Middlesbrough Care Homes and the wider older LGBT community.
Moving into sheltered housing or a care home as an older LGBT person may be a lonely or isolating experience. Research suggests older LGBT people are more likely to experience loneliness in old age.
