We support homeless LGBTQ+ young people to ensure they're safe and supported

Story

Coming out to your friends and family is a daunting challenge for many queer people, and in lots of cases like my own, you're embraced, supported and accepted. But that’s not always the case. 

Coming out, or being outed as LGBTQ+ can lead to young people being forced out by their families and made homeless, and this is the unfortunate reality for 77% of the young people The Albert Kennedy Trust supports.

This Pride month I'm working alongside many other lovely Queer Game Devs to raise money for The Albert Kennedy Trust, to support homeless LGBTQ+ youths.

For every 1km I run this month I'll be donating £2 to this page, with the goal of running 100km over the course of the month. Any donations or support to go alongside that is very much appreciated <3
