Do you run an LGBTQ+ community group? Does your charity provide services for the LGBTQ+ community?

Join us at the third Bristol LGBTQ+ Partnership event!

This event asks the question: how do we make change? We'll discuss different methods for trying to make positive change for our community from campaigning and protest to influencing public sector organisations.

Learn from other organisations that have been successful and share your ideas to shape the strategy of the Bristol LGBTQ+ Partnership!

About the LGBTQ+ Partnership

The Bristol LGBTQ+ Partnership aims to support LGBTQ+ community organisations to create thriving, well-funded and cohesive services for the LGBTQ+ community locally.

The Partnership also aims to bring together LGBTQ+ VCSE (voluntary, community and social enterprise) organisations to strengthen our community by learning from each other, sharing resources, and using our collective voice.

If your organisation is working with LGBTQ+ people, this event is for you! We'll be joined by a range of groups from grassroots LGBTQ+ groups led by the community to larger charities providing services for the LGBTQ+ community.

Whether you're a volunteer putting on events for your community or an employee of a charity that supports LGBTQ+ people, we'd love for you to join us at this event.
