Trainers project

So, what is the Young Trainers, I hear you ask? Easy ...

Firstly it has nothing to do with Nike or adidas. It’s a project set up to train young people to have the skills and confidence to go into schools and train other young people about issues to do with sexuality.

We meet up and have focussed activities which hopefully increases your confidence to get up and train people about issues like “stereotypes of gay people, why using the word gay as an insult is just plain wrong”

Training involves team building activities such as drama, graffiti, public speaking as well as looking more in depth about some issues to do with sexuality

This project is for you if you want to learn new skills and challenge people who just a little bit ignorant of some of the facts to do with being lesbian, gay or bisexual.

This project is perfect for you if you’re lgb and feel like you want to help change this world into one which is a little bit more tolerant towards lgb people.

So if you think you might be interested, just get in touch with our session worker by text or email. You can have a chat about where you are in life, and they’ll arrange for you to meet up beforehand so you know at least one person before you arrive.

“For me, young trainers has been a fantastic experience. Having the chance to go into schools to deliver a workshop on subjects which matter so much to me and effect me is such a great opportunity. The emotions felt when i feel I've successfully connected with a young person and really got through to them about equality is great. The best part is working in a group so different opinions are shared and it's a real team effort."
