Hadrian's Lover

Hadrian's Lover is a visionary project founded by Matthew Hertel, aimed at creating Manchester's first pop-up LGBTQIA+ community hub. We're passionate about fostering connection, creativity, and support within the LGBTQIA+ community. Our mission is to provide a vibrant, inclusive space where everyone can feel welcome, express themselves, and access resources.

As the founder, Matthew brings a deep commitment to enhancing Manchester's LGBTQIA+ support network. Through Hadrian's Lover, we host a variety of events that celebrate diversity, promote well-being, and encourage community engagement.

Our events range from art exhibitions and workshops to professional networking sessions and support groups. We believe in the power of community-driven initiatives and strive to create opportunities for collaboration, learning, and personal growth.

Join us in our journey to create a more inclusive and supportive Manchester for all!
