We have put together a resource for LGBTQ+ Muslims, to signpost to resources and events for those who wish to connect with their community via groups, food or prayer.
Many of the LGBTQ+ Muslim young people who access our resources and services do so due to not being welcome within their own families and communities. There is also a lack of support for this intersectional identity within LGBTQ+ spaces.
We hope that this resource can be used by any LGBTQ+ Muslim young person looking for community support so that they may feel less alone through periods of vulnerability associated with homelessness.
We have been in contact with the Inclusive Mosque Initiative who are a Queer and Trans inclusive mosque community without a building that hold events online and in-person. The Inclusive Mosque would like to add that they are most useful for those aged 21+, however they do have safeguarding policies in place.
