We asked LGBTI groups across Scotland what training and support they needed. Today we release the first of three new community group guides as a result.
In this first guide, we explore #mentalhealth, how it affects LGBTI people, and how to support them

Today is the start of #LGBTHistoryMonth. We're proud to be working with @LGBTHealthy and @SeeMeProud to tackle mental health stigma and discrimination within the #LGBT community. With mental health and sexuality there can be dual stigma, making it harder to talk about.
