Abstract | LGBTQI+ ageing populations in the globalised world continue to be ignored through lack of inclusive care services and face social isolation, stigma and discrimination and higher risk of negative mental health outcomes. This paper shares the outcomes of an EU project ‘BEING ME’ in which four EU partners collaborated to improve the care provided to older LGBTQI+ people by health and social care practitioners, through the development of targeted pedagogic tools and teaching resources. |
