LGBT Healthcare Briefing on Domestic Violence

 
We are pleased to announce the publication of this LGBT Healthcare Briefing focusing on domestic violence in LGBT relationships.
 
This mini-briefing looks at one aspect of the NUS LGBT Healthcare Manifesto, published last year, detailing ten key demands for a fairer health system for LGBT people.
 
The aim of this briefing is to provide campaigning ideas for LGBT societies and groups who want to promote LGBT-positive healthcare for students.

The briefing contains information about relevant research and LGBT domestic violence support and advocacy organisations, and ideas about how you can campaign for changes and support students who might be in abusive relationships.

Download the briefing here.
Download the manifesto here.
 
If you have any questions about this briefing or would like more advice about LGBT Healthcare campaigning please e-mail LGBT Officer (Women's Place) Vicki Baars.
