We aim to promote equality, diversity and inclusion for all regardless of gender, sexuality, colour, creed or ability and provide support guidance and advice not only to the Island’s LGBTQ+ population but the wider community, and to reach out to those who feel marginalised or isolated by society or who have been rejected by their loved ones. With a particular focus on physical and mental wellbeing we intend to provide inclusive and safe spaces to allow people to be themselves. The long-term support and inclusion initiatives will always be the heart and soul of the charity, the Island has a substantial LGBTQ+ community and very little in the way of places to go where they can be open without fear of prejudice or harm. Having a place to go to socialise and connect with others is vitally important to our community, particularly young people who may feel the effects of social isolation and fear of prejudice much more profoundly than those who have more freedom of movement.
