About the event
LGBT+ individuals are at a higher risk of experiencing a mental health problem than the wider population, with concerning numbers of LGBT+ individuals reporting depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and even attempting to take their own lives.
The event will be open to all, promoting better, mentally healthier workplaces for everyone. Together we can start the conversation, stand up to stigma and break down the barriers to finding support.
It is ok, to not be ok.

The third Monday of the January has been awarded the most miserable day of the year - Blue Monday! This year, join us in transforming it into a rainbow evening of award winning comedy and thought provoking discussion as we shine the light on mental health and provide visibility, advice and guidance.
Stand-up comedian John Pendal’s award winning show - looks at sex, sexuality, shame and guilt. SHAME MONSTER is aimed at anyone struggling to feel good about themselves.
The evening follows a shy Baptist boy from Watford who is full of shame. But what’s the difference between shame and guilt? Is it too late for John to try and live without either?
