Support for LGBTQI refugees and asylum seekers

Micro Rainbow provides housing, social inclusion and employability support for LGBTQI refugees and asylum seekers.

The social inclusion programme is free, and encompasses a range of activities including body and movement, support sessions and one off events such as theatre trips.

These activities help create community for LGBTQI asylum seekers and refugees, as well as combatting loneliness and isolation and helping establish supportive networks.
