LGBTQIA+ Support

Stockton Riverside College is an inclusive college and we offer a variety of support & advice for any LGBTQIA+ students who need it but also the parents of students.

Every term we run an LGBTQIA+ support group where students can drop by and spend time with fellow students.

See the links below for help and guidance as well as signposting to LGBTQIA+ support charities and organisation.

If you need support, advice or want to get involved, please contact us on the email below
