WORKSHOPS
About A Boy
He’s gotta be so macho… A workshop that looks at all the pressures young men often face. Learn how to build your self-confidence; challenge negative male stereotypes; and discover that being a boy can mean a whole range of different things to different people.
Relationship Circle
Being with someone isn’t always easy. Get a chance to discuss relationship issues or problems with others in a relaxed, but confidential way.
Dirty Talk
Feed up hearing sexist, heterosexist, and homophobic language? This workshop will look at constructive and safe ways to challenge ‘bad’ language in school, college, uni, or work.
Sussed on the Scene
Whether you are looking to meet someone or just have fun with friends, the LGBT scene can be full of promise. This workshop, aimed at older participants, will explore the highs and lows of the disco, and make sure that you and your friends stay sussed and safe on the scene
Maybe Baby
Always wanted to be a mum or dad? Come with us on a practical guide to having a family as a gay couple or a single parent. Find out if you are ready or what can help to make a happy family.
Girl Guide
It’s not always easy being a girl. This workshop will explore the pressures that young women face in everyday life and look at ways of building self-confidence, challenging gender stereotypes, and being comfortable with who are.
