Brought to you by Boost in collaboration with North Cumbria Knowledge and Library Service, this LUNCH & LEARN session on 14 November 2024 saw Dr Laura Coulthard (NIHR award holder/Honorary Clinical Psychologist – Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust), Nimerta Virdee (Connected Voice), Daniel Kirkbride (Streetwise) and Rhoda Morrow (Leader of PLUS Group, Gateshead based LGBTQ+ youth group, Counsellor and Development Worker for Gladstone Terrace Centre for Young People) deliver a presentation on ‘Working with gender-diverse young people across North East and North Cumbria’.

Our LUNCH & LEARNs are short, informal events that take place at lunchtime – while you take a break and eat, you can listen to our invited speaker as they give a short talk sharing information about their work, as well as their experience of improvement.

In this session, we heard about what young people would like practitioners across the North East and North Cumbria system to know about working with gender-diverse young people including:

  • Language and terminology;
  • Pronouns: Don’t worry about getting it wrong;
  • Confidentiality when speaking with young people.
