Overview

Norfolk LGBT+ Project is the county’s only dedicated LGBT+ health and wellbeing service provider, providing early intervention and prevention support, services, and information to all age groups so we can help empower individuals to improve their mental and emotional wellbeing and to reduce social isolation of LGBT+ individuals living in Norfolk and Waveney. The Charity was founded in 2007 by a small group of individuals who came together with the aim of making a difference to the lives of LGBT+ youths in Norfolk and Waveney, this was achieved by setting up a LGBTQ+ youth group in Norwich which became known as BLAH. In 2009 we registered as a Charity and since then we have expanded our services based on the needs of our LGBTQ+ clients in Norfolk and Waveney. We are a small, passionate team of staff, trustees and volunteers with the continuous aim of making a difference. Norfolk LGBT+ Project’s continued mission is to improve the health, mental health and wellbeing of LGBT+ people of all ages and communities in Norfolk and Waveney. We want to bring supportive, empowering, and non-judgemental services to people’s lives to enable them to improve their wellbeing. We also aim to assist others in providing support to LGBT+ communities through our informative services, educational tools, and resources. Our services are for the community, by the community, and we champion the importance of local service provision that is informed, effective and compassionate. We hope together we can make a difference, working towards an inclusive society for all those we support and represent.
