Talk: ‘Rainbow parenting – how to support LGBTQ+ kids.’ Richard Euston

A bout the talk:

As a parent we always want what’s best for our kids, and want to see them happy and thriving. But it can be difficult to do this when we’re confronted by aspects of their identity that we don’t understand. This workshop will help equip parents with the language and tools they can use to not only understand their LGBTQ+ child, but also how to be an ally and support them through all the challenges they may face.

T his event will be taking place in person at University Centre Warrington, Time Square and will also be streamed live. Join the live stream.
