Community comes together to talk health & wellbeing

On Wednesday 16th October, the local LGBTQ+ community came together as part of Sahir’s Queer Town Hall, as an opportunity to discuss issues important to us.

Following previous QTH’s focusing on:

  • Merseyside Police
  • Pride in the Community

We came together to focus on LGBTQ+ health and wellbeing post COVID-19, and heard from a number of speakers, including:

  • Vivian Hope from Liverpool John Moore’s University
  • Claire Stevens from Healthwatch Liverpool, discussing the Trans Health Report
  • Rach Gaskell from Central Liverpool Primary Care Network
  • Kate Sanders from Spirit Level
  • James Woolgar from Liverpool City Council

The event was expertly hosted by The Queen of Heartbreak, with a performance from Saint Vespaluus.

We will be taking the incredible feedback we received on the evening, and writing up a report to share with both the community and those health & care providers who attended the event.
