Good as you 2

Daniel Docherty

I will talk about issues around being a disabled gay man. I will look at the attitudes of other people and how I have experienced a 'double discrimination'. As a response to these barriers a group was set up in Manchester called 'Good as you 2'.

It was for lesbian, gay and bisexual people with learning difficulties. Finding the right support for the group was crucial. I point out some of the things that have changed since the group came about. I also look at some issues still to be solved.
