HIV and sexual health charity, Terrence Higgins Trust (THT), is inviting lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) young people in Camden to join a new youth group held on Tuesdays between 4-6pm. 

The group, called NRG Camden, offers young people a supportive environment in which they can discuss their sexuality and meet people who are going through similar experiences.  Activities and discussions at NRG will cover issues like coming out, social skills, sexually transmitted infections and drugs and alcohol.  There will also be resources and information through Connexions on accessing college courses, CV writing and interview skills.

Caroline Early, Youth Services Manager at Terrence Higgins Trust said “LGB young people can sometimes feel a bit isolated so this new group is a great opportunity for them to get together and support each other. We’ll cover all sorts of issues in the group, but it’s mainly about meeting new people and having a laugh.  If you’re interested, please come along and give it a go!”  

NRG takes place in Camden.  Young people who would like to get involved can phone 020 7803 1684 or 07771 858 057 for details.  Alternatively email nrg@tht.org.uk
