Birmingham LGBT Centre is moving to a brand new centre in the heart of the Gay Village. To celebrate, we’re featuring staff and community members, the people who make our centre and village.
Chris he/him
Lead development officer, Substance support service
“I have worked at Birmingham LGBT since November 2017. Starting as a sessional worker, I soon became a full time team member within the sexual health team where my main focus was supporting people who engaged in chemsex.
Along with the support I provided I was able to deliver training sessions to professionals of the world of chemsex and look at ways that people could better gain support.
When the opportunity arose for Birmingham LGBT to provide more support for the community with wider drug and alcohol issues, I jumped at the opportunity to lead this service. I have now been the lead for the substance support service for the past 2 years.
In my personal life I am a lover of nature and the outdoors. Priding myself on my jungle themed garden. I also keep a large collection of unusual and exotic pets, which gives me great joy.”
