Skills for care has published a new framework to support social care workers in providing care to older lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ+) people.
This new framework was commissioned and funded by skills for care and developed by the University of Strathclyde and the pride in ageing programme at LGBT foundation. It was created in collaboration with older LGBTQ+ people.
These experiences can still have a lasting impact on older LGBTQ+ people today, and so it’s vital that people providing care and support understand these issues.
