🌈💬 THEY SAID WHAT?! Can you guess what these quotes from young people are about? Comment down below, no cheating!..... That's right it's our LGBT+ Youth Summit 2024! We loved hearing all our young peoples feedback about the event and we cant wait to see you all again in the future!

🌈 ⏰ WHAT CAN YOU DO IN AN HOUR? ⌛ With one hour, The Proud Trust can support a young person who needs advice about coming out to their friends, via its digital live chat service, Proud Connections. ⌛ Two hours a week at one of its youth groups can give a young person a space to be their true self, without judgment, for the first time. ⌛ One hour a month with a Proud Mentor can help support a young person to take the first steps towards their dream career. Every young person should have the chance to find their community, feel supported and to be proud of who they are. Research shows that this can be tougher for LGBT+ young people, but the good news is that with the right help, we can change that for the better. At The Proud Trust, we know that every hour of support we deliver can make a huge difference in young people’s lives, and that’s where you come in! We want you to be part of the TIME TO BE PROUD charity campaign, helping us to fund 1,500 hours of support for LGBT+ young people this Pride season.
