Peer Carers Support Group
Organiser
Diane
If you are LGBTQ+ and care or support someone, this may be the group for you.
Our Peer Carers Support Group is a partnership between LGBT Health and Wellbeing and the Carewell Health and Wellbeing Partnership to offer a space where LGBTQ+ carers can find support and connection.
During our sessions, we’ll discuss various topics related to caregiving, mental health, self-care and more. Our aim is to foster a supportive environment where everyone can share experiences, exchange advice, and find solidarity. Together, we can navigate the unique challenges and triumphs that come with being an LGBTQ+ carer.
Come as you are, and let’s build a strong, caring community together!
This event is for LGBTQ+ people aged 16+ who are carers.
We welcome the entire diversity of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community including non-binary, queer, intersex, asexual people and all identities under the LGBTQIA+ umbrella.
We also welcome people who are exploring their sexual orientation/gender identity, or do not use labels for either.
To get access to the online meeting space, we need you to register in advance.
Use the Eventbrite form to register. Registration is for 1 person only. If you wish to book for someone, please make another registration using their name. After registration, you will receive a confirmation email.
You can also contact the event organiser Diane.
If something changes and you can no longer attend the event, please let us know as soon as you can so your space becomes available for someone else. You can cancel your space on Eventbrite or contact Diane.
The event is hosted on the video conference app Zoom.
You don’t need a Zoom account to join a Zoom meetup but you can create one here. If you have a Zoom account, our email reminder will also include the meeting ID which you can use to find the Zoom meeting.
Eventbrite reminders will include a link to an online event page which you can access the Zoom meeting from. In order to use the online event page, you need to register an account with Eventbrite. If you don’t want an account with Eventbrite, make sure you book early enough to not miss the organiser’s email reminder which will include the direct Zoom details.
All LGBT Health and Wellbeing’s events are delivered under a safer spaces commitment that we ask everyone to follow (this includes attendees, our staff and volunteers).
