Allsorts at The Corner, Dundee
28/01/2010
The Corner in partnership with Allsorts LGBT youth Group and LGBT History month, have dedicated January and February to raise awareness of LGBT issues.
There are two outfacing windows with LGBT information, as well as posters and information within the centre.
There is also a questionnaire which asks young people about their knowledge of LGBT issues, whether they think it is safe for people to 'come out' within their schools or workplace, and their values in relation to their friends 'coming out' to them.
Results from this will be published in March.
Allsorts is also dedicating the two months to LGBT characters and identities from our history. This includes a polari workshop, screening of RENT and looking at the history of HIV and AIDS, a discussion about changes in legislation and the impact of this for LGBT people, and also a storytelling session.
If you live in Tayside and would like to be part of any of these events, or would like to talk to a worker about any issues please contact The Corner and ask for Graeme 01382 206060, or text 0778 148 1788, or e-mail info@lgbtyouth.org.uk
