Redbridge Rainbow Community 

About

Redbridge Rainbow Community works with LGBTQ+ people who live, work, socialise or study in the London Borough of Redbridge.  

We provide support and signposting, influence policy and practice and run training.

Activities:

• arrange meet-ups for friendship and support and other events
• provide training for local organisations on LGBTQ+ issues
• work with the local council, allies and partners so that the London Borough of Redbridge meets the needs of our diverse community

Current Projects

Redbridge Rainbow health and care research project

Redbridge Rainbow would like to interview local LGBTQ+ people (aged 18 or over) about their experiences of health or social care services. The project aims to identify examples of good practice, any gaps and recommendations for action. Interview participants will be offered a £20 voucher for taking part. Find out more and get involved:

redbridgerainbowcommunity.org.uk/rainbow-health-and-social-care.

The project is supported by a Community Cash Grant from Healthwatch Redbridge.

Survey for health and care professionals

Redbridge Rainbow is also inviting health and care professionals to respond to a short anonymous survey to share their experiences of working with LGBTQ+ people.

This is a chance for health and care professionals to ask any questions they have and what would help them to improve their confidence, knowledge or skills to work with LGBTQ+ people. The results will be shared anonymously in a report outlining good practice, gaps and recommendations for action.

Complete the short anonymous survey.
