Q-Time is Queerwell’s brand new live digital mental health and wellbeing programme for LGBTQ+ adults (18+) across the UK - part-founded by The Community Fund. This project is based on the belief that we all need to make quality time to restore and ensure our mental health.

‍

• Join us for coach, therapist and facilitator-led sessions designed to help you build the skills and strength to overcome challenges.
• A gentle mix of learning-based workshops, mindful and creativity playshops, discussion and community — when you need it most.
• Access to a free digital resource hub, where you can download wellbeing tools and recordings of our most popular workshops.

‍

Each session will be facilitated by qualified, LGBTQ+-affirming therapists, coaches, and wellbeing practitioners. Sessions will include a mix of psycho-educational wellbeing workshops, guided mindfulness, and grounding, creative and reflective PlayShop activities, and supported community check-ins designed to reduce isolation and build connection.

‍

Sessions will be trauma-informed and accessible, with optional camera use, clear boundaries, and adaptations for neurodivergent participants. Where appropriate, sessions will be recorded and uploaded to a secure digital hub so participants can access support at a time and pace that suits their wellbeing. Participants will also be able to download simple wellbeing tools and resources.

‍

Funding from Awards for All will support a six-month pilot of Q-Time, enabling Queerwell to test and refine this national digital offer while ensuring it is safe, inclusive, and professionally delivered.

‍

Why is this project needed?

‍

There is a clear gap for accessible, preventative, community-based digital support that prioritises human connection rather than self-guided apps or generic wellbeing content.

‍

This project responds directly to that gap by providing live, facilitated, LGBTQ+-affirming support at a critical time, helping to prevent mental health issues from escalating into crisis.
