MindOut at the Customer Collective
Today the Customer Collective were thrilled to welcome Alice from MindOut, to help us celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month!
The Customer Collective is a space for all customers, so as well as learning about LGBTQ+ identities and mental health, we talked about things we can all do to make our spaces inclusive, so that everybody can feel able to be their whole selves. We will be using some of those ideas, including inviting people to share their names and personal pronouns, to make sure everyone feels welcome at our meetings.
Customers told us that the session was fun, interesting and that they learned a lot. The group want to keep celebrating and learning about diversity, so watch this space for more opportunities!
A big thank you to everybody who came along, and especially to those that shared their experiences with us.
The Customer Collective meets on the first Friday of every month at 11am, you can find out more (including how to join in!) here and customers can join our Collective Facebook group here!
You can find out more about MindOut (a mental health service run by and for lesbians, gay, bisexual, trans and queer people) on their website.
