Episode 5 – LGBTQ+

In the latest episode of our Equality in Housing podcast, we talk to Janice Stevenson, Development Officer at LGBT Youth Scotland, a youth work service providing youth groups for LGBT young people across Scotland.

Janice’s work focuses on influencing policy in Scotland for LGBT youth populations. Within the conversation we’ll touch on a broad range of important issues including:

  • discrimination in housing for LGBT people
  • challenges with people not recognising their own rights to housing
  • issues with gatekeeping in accessing services.

The conversation raises various issues that we know many organisations face, which includes a lack of data to help providers deliver appropriate services.
