What Partner Support Helps Tackle

The effects of loneliness, isolation and bullying on LGBTQ+ young people can impact academic attainment and life prospects.

"DRM is a great organisation which we are delighted to be one of their corporate partners. The work and support they do with young people is amazing and empowering. They provide an amazing platform for LGBTQIA+ and ally role models to share their own stories which will help generations to come!"

Diversity Role Models deliver LGBTQ+ inclusivity workshops directly into classrooms

What Partner Support Helps Deliver

Diversity Role Models workshops, training, and LGBTQ+ inclusive resources help LGBTQ+ youth feel less alone while equipping young people with the knowledge and compassion to become ‘upstanders’ rather than ‘bystanders’ when they witness anti-LGBTQ+ bullying.

"LGBTQ+ students in our area face a lot of social isolation. Funded work provided by Diversity Role Models gave us the opportunity to start to make our school that safe place that these children need."

– Deputy Head, North Durham Academy
