Spectrum inclusion is an LGBTQIA+ organisation dedicated to connecting communities and creating safe spaces for all to find acceptance for who they are. We believe everyone should have the freedom to explore and express their gender identity and sexuality with pride and without judgement, not matter what stage of life you're at.

 

Our mission

visibility, safety, support

we believe everyone deserves to feel safe and supported in their lives, and we are committed to cultivating a sense of belonging for those under the LGBTQIA+ umbrella as well as our allies.

everything we do is shaped by feedback from the community. we want people to be involved in how spectrum inclusion grows, from input for creating resources to volunteering to help with social groups. and while we operate a policy of being visible and transparent, we also understand the need for people to be safe first and foremost.
