This condensed 3 hour training aims to support participants to increase understanding and confidence around LGBTQ+ terminology, definitions and experience.

By the end of the training participants will have gained knowledge and understanding of:

      Attitudes towards LGBTQ+ young people

      Stereotypes, judgements and assumptions around sexuality and gender identity

      The issues affecting LGBTQ+ young people and how to support them

      Definitions and terminology

      Practical skills to support a young person with disclosure

      How to develop professional practice to ensure LGBTQ+ inclusivity

      Ways to challenge homophobia, biphobia and transphobia in youth settings
