LGBT+ Futures Programme

Imposter Syndrome Workshop by LEARNEST

3rd March 2021 by Learnest

Do you struggle with feelings of inadequacy? This workshop is specially designed to look at Imposter Syndrome through a queer lens.

Imposter syndrome is a phenomenon where you feel that your achievements or position are undeserved, or succumb to persistent anxiety and self-doubt despite apparent success and ability. It can drive people to overworking, perfectionism and chronic stress.

But what if we could befriend our imposter syndrome?

And what if it can teach us something about our internalised oppression?

This workshop helps us understand imposter syndrome, confront its messages and develop a positive relationship with some aspects of its effects while loosening its grip on our lives.

During this 90 minute online session, you will come together with other members of the LGBTQ+ community and explore strategies and techniques to support your wellbeing and challenge negative self-talk during this difficult time.

  • These sessions are only open to individuals who identify as LGBTQ+.
  • We use captions for our online events, if you have any additional adjustments please let us know when you book and we will do our best to accommodate.

Hosted by SAM HOPE – non-binary & bisexual activist, trainer and therapist. Sam has experience working with LGBTIQA+ individuals in a number of capacities for many years. Through Sam’s work, they have gained a rooted appreciation of oppression and minority stress and built links to many communities across the world.

LGBT+ Futures Programme: Intersections Fund

3rd February 2020 by Philip

We are very excited to announce a new small grants funding opportunity that opens to applications today (Monday 3rd February). Thanks to the generosity of an individual Donor, Consortium will be distributing a total pot of £20,000 in grants.

Applications will be open to LGBT+ non-profit groups, organisations and projects that support and improve the lives of LGBT+ people of faith, LGBT+ people of colour and LGBT+ women in recognition of the underrepresentation and higher levels of marginalisation and discrimination faced by these members of our communities.

Applications can be for any amount up to a maximum of £5,000 but it should be noted applications above £2,500 will be exceptional. We are keen to maximise this funding and fund as many viable projects as possible, so we expect the average grant amount awarded to be in the region of £500-£2,500.

Applications are now open and will close at 5pm on Monday 2nd March 2020. More details can be found here: www.consortium.lgbt/grantgiving/lgbt-futures-intersections-fund
