We are excited to announce that our Online LGBTI+ Youth Group for new members will remain online. On completion, members can then join our existing weekly groups based in Dublin – Under 18’s, IndividualiTy, Over 18’s and The Ladybirds. If you cannot access these groups in the Dublin region, check out our National Network page and find your local LGBTI+ youth group.
