What are LGBTQ+ people’s experiences of alcohol services in Scotland?

Location: Online, United Kingdom

About this event

LGBTQ+ people are more likely to drink excessively compared to heterosexual and cisgender people. Perceived barriers in accessing alcohol services may further increase alcohol-related harm. However, there is limited evidence on what constitutes a meaningful and helpful LGBT+ alcohol service. This is the first qualitative study to explore the experiences of LGBTQ+ people who have used alcohol services in Scotland, and the views of service providers. Methods: We conducted remote interviews with 14 LGBTQ+ people and 15 service providers.
