Older trans people, whatever their sexual orientation, face particular difficulties as they age and therefore have specific and varied needs. Delivered by older LGBT+ trainers and facilitators from Opening Doors London, this half-day workshop, delivered soon after International Transgender Day of Visibility, celebrates the lives of older trans people and explores the health and social care challenges faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans communities as they approach older age.

• Be briefed on 50 years of LGBT+ social history and criminalisation that shaped lives

• Hear first-hand real-life stories of growing up and coming out as a trans person

• Get the latest research into LGBT+ demographics, and trans community issues

• Understand the particular health and social care needs of older LGBT+ people

• Take away free resources, video links and good-practice guides to share with friends, family, work colleagues and social networks

This is a free workshop but places are limited to 30. Early booking is advised to be sure of attendance. Please let us know if you are unable to attend after you register.
