About the programme
LGBT Ireland’s Online LGBT Champions Training Programme supports health and social care professionals to provide safer, more inclusive care for LGBTQI+ older people.
Older LGBTQI+ people are more likely to live alone, experience isolation, and fear discrimination in care settings. Many worry about being forced “back into the closet” when seeking support. The Champions Programme offers practical, evidence-informed training and resources to help services respond with dignity, confidence, and respect.
Upcoming online training dates (1–5pm):
