EXPIRED Intercom Trust. LGBT+ Schools groups

We’re offering schools across the county bespoke training, help starting and running an LGBT+ group, alongside a myriad of other resources and opportunities, free of charge (including support with the new RSE requirements).

We’re incredibly passionate about helping young LGBT+ people however we can and we’ve noticed an increased need, especially after lockdown, within the young LGBT+ community for support and opportunities to reduce isolation.

It benefits young people by:

• Increasing self-belief and wellbeing
• Reducing isolation
• Reducing discrimination
• Raising aspirations
• Fostering a sense of community and belonging

It benefits schools by:

• Increasing attendance
• Minimising homophobia, biphobia and transphobia, with the aim to eliminate it
• Helping LGBT+ students feel supported, accepted, and included
• Supporting schools to meet OFSTED diversity and inclusion targets
