LGBTQIA+ Inclusion Advisory & Strategic Support

Practical, systems-based guidance to help organisations strengthen policy, reduce risk and embed meaningful, sustainable inclusion.

Moving from intention to implementation

Many organisations want to create safer, more inclusive environments for LGBTQIA+ staff and communities.

But knowing where to start - or how to move beyond symbolic inclusion - can feel complex.

I provide strategic advisory support to help organisations assess risk, strengthen systems and embed inclusive practice in a way that is practical, trauma-informed and sustainable.

This work goes beyond one-off training. It focuses on culture, policy and long-term structural change.

Advisory Support May Include:

  • Review of existing policies and procedures

  • Development of LGBTQIA+ inclusion strategies

  • Workplace gendered violence risk assessment and mitigation

  • Safer spaces frameworks and implementation planning

  • Support with reporting and response systems

  • Development of LGBTQIA+ incision policies such as gender affirmation support plans

  • Leadership guidance and executive briefings

  • Consultation design and co-design facilitation

  • Ongoing strategic partnership

My Approach

My advisory work is:

Care-led and trauma-informed
Safety and dignity are central to every recommendation.

Grounded in lived experience
I bring both professional expertise and deep connection to LGBTQIA+ communities.

Systems-focused
I work at the intersection of culture, policy and operational practice.

Practical and realistic
Strategies are designed to work within your organisation’s size, structure and resourcing.

Collaborative
This is not about delivering a report and walking away. It’s about building internal capacity.
