WELCOME 

​

In Scotland, LGBTQIA+* people have worse mental health and think about and attempt suicide more than our heterosexual and cisgender (non-trans) peers.

 

One of the key barriers to research, development and policy change in Scotland is that we don’t have a way to bring these together.

 

So, we’re developing a network to focus on LGBTQIA+ Mental Health Research in Scotland and work out how researchers, practitioners and LGBTQIA+ communities can work together to help our community.

​

Become part of the Network

If you'd like to become part of our network - and receive invitations to our events, our newsletter as well as information LGBTQIA+ Mental Health in Scotland, please join our network.

​

Come to our next event​

Come along to our in person Network Development Events on 16th/17th September in Edinburgh and Glasgow to help design the programme of events, resources and activities that we will focus on over the next 18 months – over a delicious, free lunch!

​

Who should attend?

We want LGBTQIA+ community members, community groups and businesses , as well as academics, service providers, policymakers, to come along.

​

These events will be a safe space for LGBTQIA+ folk with a zero-tolerance attitude to hate speech and/or anti-LGBTQIA+ stigma.

*Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual, aromantic, non-binary and other sexual/gender minority folk
