GLYNI, in a nutshell

Gay and Lesbian Youth Northern Ireland, or as we are more casually known, GLYNI, is a relaxed youth setting, specifically for the LGBT community. We are a group that caters for 14-25 year olds, the youth arm of the Cara-Friend network. We believe that every LGBT young person has a right to exist, but more importantly, has a right, legal and otherwise, to enjoy full citizenship without fear, prejudice, discrimination and bigotry. To this end, GLYNI will endeavour to support you, your families and friends, to advocate on your behalf by highlighting your needs and interests, and involving YOU in decisions and policy-making that affects your life where your sexual identity is used as a barrier against you. Every young person who has come through our doors has been in a similar situation to you, and some still are. We will do what we can to help you, even if you simply want a friendly face.
