Story

Off Centre's Project Indigo youth group is for individuals who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer or intersex or questioning their sexual or gender identity, aged between 13-25.

The group offers young people the opportunity to meet other LGBTQI+ young people in a supportive environment whilst having fun and making new friends.

"I was really scared to come the first time, as I didn't know what the people would be like and I'm not really out to my friends but everyone has been so welcoming and it has helped me loads so far. "

"It has been really helpful for me since I started to come to the Indigo project. It has helped me to be myself and to feel free to be who I am. It will be great to come and join the indigo group guys. Anything you are going through is the same as we are going through so come here and meet with us! "

"Project Indigo is a really awesome group. It has allowed me to explore and become the gender fluid I should have always been able to be."

"This group is a secure getaway from the outside world where you are surrounded by like minded individuals that you can empathise with and be your complete, found self. "
