Proud Parents from Free2B

Proud Parents is a group for parents of gender variant children, supported by Free2B.  Free2B is a London based Community Interest Company with the aim of supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals, those questioning their sexuality &/or gender, plus individuals who define themselves by alternative identities (LGBTQ+).

We provide a unique provision in delivering three distinct, yet interrelated services:

• support for young people;
• support for parents and
• LGBTQ+ training for organisations & education establishments.

Our core aim is to provide a safe, social space for LGBTQ+ young people and parents to be able to come together, share common experiences and ‘be themselves’ without fear of discrimination.

Current services:

• LGBTQ+ youth clubs for young people aged 9-19+
• Free2Talk 1:1 mentoring for young people aged 13-18
• LGBTQ+ awareness training

Fortnightly Wednesday 6:30-7:30 online

If you live in London and would like to access our digital youth clubs, parent group and / or 1:1 support please download and complete our membership form.

Once we have received your membership form, we will get in touch and arrange an initial contact to explore how we can best support you.

We recognise that not everyone can easily engage with online services as this may put them at risk, so please do get in touch if you’d like to look at ways you can safely access our support. For example, we have a safe-word system for members to alert us if they are unable to speak during a call, we can arrange safe times for contacts or provide support via email or text and we are happy to discuss other options that you feel may allow you to safely access our digital services.

For our junior club for 9-12 year olds, parental consent is required.
