CHAMPIONS PROGRAMME
INTRODUCTION
LGBT Ireland is a national charitable organisation providing quality
support and information services to Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans and
Intersex (LGBTI+) people and their family members. Informed by the
issues and experiences raised through our frontline services we also
provide training and advocacy supports to advance the rights,
visibility and inclusion of LGBTI+ people and their families, living
across Ireland.
CONTEXT
Research has shown that LGBTI+ older people are at a much higher risk
of being lonely and isolated compared to their heterosexual peers, it
has also indicated that many do not feel comfortable revealing their
identity due to the fear of not being accepted. Both issues have a
huge negative impact on mental and physical health and well-being over
time.
To address these issues LGBT Ireland developed the LGBT Champions
Training Programme. The aim of the LGBT Champions Programme is to
create change in the healthcare system, making LGBTI+ Older people
feel safe and assured that they will be accepted.
The LGBT Champions Programme is an LGBT+ awareness and inclusion
education programme specifically addressing the issues affecting older
members of the LGBTI+ community. Since **Apply on the website** LGBT
Ireland has delivered this Programme to health and social care
professionals working and supporting older people. There are currently
**Apply on the website**+ LGBT Champions, working across **Apply on
