About the LGBTQ+ category

This is a safe and supportive space for members of the LGBTQ+ community who are grieving, as we know that there can be unique feelings, situations and issues that occur when someone who identifies as LGBTQ+ experiences the death of a person in their life.

There might also be members who are looking for advice or support for someone they know who identifies as LGBTQ+ and is grieving.

The Sue Ryder Online Bereavement Community is an inclusive space and we know that there are people from the LGBTQ+ community who are already being supported and providing support to other members in other threads. With this category, however, we wanted to create a specific space for people from the LGBTQ+ community who feel more comfortable posting here, or for members who are looking for support particularly from the LGBTQ+ community.

We hope you find it useful. If you have any feedback on the use of this category then please email us at online.community@sueryder.org.

Take care,
the Online Community team
