Step Out is a supportive, confidential social group for LGBTQ+ young people aged 11–16. Delivered in partnership with Cornerhouse, the group offers a safe space to meet others, make friends, and begin exploring who you are — at your own pace. Step Out is about creating space for young people to feel valued, respected, and safe enough to be themselves.
Step Out feels really chill. You can just turn up, hang out, and talk if you want, there’s no pressure to be anything other than yourself
It’s helped me meet people who understand my experiences. I don’t feel awkward or judged, and that makes a big difference
The group feels safe and supportive. Having people from Cornerhouse there makes it feel cared for and welcoming
At the heart of Step Out are the young people who shape the group. Their voices and experiences show the real impact of having a safe, supportive space.
