LGBTQI+ Lambeth residents invited to take part in COVID research project

The project is looking to learn more about the experiences of LGBTQI+ communities, to influence policies and services that enable LGBTQI+ people in Lambeth to thrive.

Date: 23 April 2021

*Note: The involvement period for this project has now ended.

Are you LGBTQI+? Do you live in Lambeth?

If so, a team of interdisciplinary researchers from London Met would love to hear from you about the impact of Covid-19 on your life.

The project is looking to learn more about the experiences of LGBTQI+ communities, to influence policies and services that enable LGBTQI+ people in Lambeth to thrive. It is led by experienced researchers from London Met, working closely with Lambeth Council and four community organisations (Black Thrive, Blackout, Lambeth Links and Opening Doors Lambeth). The work is being conducted between January and July 2021 and has three broad aims, to:

  1. Identify the needs and challenges experienced by Lambeth’s LGBTQI+ communities
  2. Develop new understandings of the experiences and needs of Black and Ethnic Minority LGBTQI+ people who have been under-represented in previous studies
  3. Design solutions with LGBTQI+ communities, researchers, policymakers and providers to develop solutions that work.

How to get involved

To share your experiences of being LGBTQI+ in Lambeth during this time of COVID19, you can complete this online questionnaire (closing in early May)
