Queer Carers Group (online)

Who is described as a ‘carer’ and how does being LGBTQ+  influence perceptions of this role? How do we navigate institutional systems of care that don’t recognise our chosen family relationships? How do we cope with a failing social care sector or organise together to bring about change?

This  safe, online forum brings together perspectives from people who have experienced being an LGBTQ carer in a number of contexts - whether that be looking after a partner, parent or sibling; working through the challenges of chronic illness or challenging institutional violence or setting-up alternative systems of peer support.
