If your organisation is looking to become more LGBT+ or trans aware, here’s what we can deliver for you:
LGBT+ Awareness Training
This is a three hour training session that covers the following topics:
- Terminology
- Issues faced by LGBT+ people
- Hate crime
- Mental health
- Challenging homophobic, biphobic and transphobic language
- How to make your service safe, welcoming and accessible for LGBT+ people
- How to be an ally to LGBT+ people
The training is delivered in an informal way, with plenty of interaction. The discussion is kept open and participants are encouraged to have an opinion and share their experiences. This training can be delivered in person or online via Zoom.
Copies of the slideshow presentation (don’t worry, it’s not death by Powerpoint) and a glossary of LGBT+ terminology are provided to each delegate. Certificates are also provided.
The cost of this training session is £400.
Trans Awareness Training
This is a 90 minute training session that covers the following topics:
- Terminology
- Issues faced by trans people
- Hate crime
- Mental health
- The process of transitioning
- Challenging transphobic language
- How to make your service safe, welcoming and accessible for trans people
- How to be an ally to trans people
The training is delivered in an informal way, with plenty of interaction. The discussion is kept open and participants are encouraged to have an opinion and share their experiences. This training can be delivered in person or online via Zoom.
Copies of the slideshow presentation (don’t worry, it’s not death by Powerpoint) and a glossary of LGBT+ terminology are provided to each delegate. Certificates are also provided.
The cost of this training session is £250.
Bitesize Training Sessions
We are able to deliver one hour bitesize LGBT+ and trans awareness training sessions if you are time limited. The sessions cover exactly the same as the longer sessions do, but it’s more of a whistlestop tour. The cost of the bitesize sessions are £250.
Full Day Training Sessions
If you’re looking for something more in-depth, we’re able to deliver full day training sessions. This could be to your team or the people you work with (students, service users, etc). We take a more bespoke approach to this, but could deliver a full day of LGBT+ or trans awareness training, or a series of bitesize sessions across the day. We’ll discuss your requirements with you and then create a plan based on that. The cost for a full day of training is £750.
Talks and Workshops
If you’d like a guest speaker on LGBT+ or trans awareness, or bespoke workshops for your organisation, we’re able to provide this service for you too.
