Open Doors Youth Service provides support to young people who identify as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and/or Transgender (LGBT), those who have a diverse gender and/or sexuality and those who are exploring their sexuality and/or gender identity.
LGBT young people can often feel different, isolated, alone and confused to everyone else and may experience difficulties at home with their parents or at school.
However it is really important to know that you are not alone! There are a lot of LGBT young people and there is support available!
Open Doors Youth Service is a safe place where LGBT young people can simply come and be themselves in a positive and affirmative environment and seek the support that they need and gain access to a wide range of information about sexuality and gender identity.
Please visit Our Services for more information about what we do, what support is available and our social groups for LGBT young people.
