LGBT+ History Month: role models and icons
Although LGBT+ History Month is over for another year, we wanted to share with you an activity that took place in our LGBTQ+ Safe Space in Swindon.
This year’s LGBT+ History month theme is “Behind the lens”, and an opportunity to pay homage to great LGBTQ icons who have impacted the world of film, overcoming the Hays Code which you can read more about here.
Our team spent time with residents to discuss who they consider icons in the LGBTQ+ community and what they mean to them.
Our safe spaces are so important and we love to have discussions like this.

Our LGBTQ+ Safe Space provides short-term accommodation and support for members of the LGBT community who have experienced domestic abuse, discrimination, hate crime or family breakdown.
