Join us for this month’s Community Session that platforms LGBTQ+ immigration, asylum seekers and refugee voices!
Manchester Pride’s Community Sessions aim to platform issues faced by the LGBTQ+ community by bringing together professionals, those with lived experience and members of the community to learn, discuss, share resources and celebrate the diverse LGBTQ+ community that makes Manchester a brilliant place to live.
At this month's session, you'll have the opportunity to learn more about the impact of the proposed Illegal Migration Bill on LGBTQ+ people, the fantastic work being done by refugee support groups in Greater Manchester, and share resources on what we can do to support LGBTQ+ immigrants, asylum seekers and refugees.
