ABOUT US

THE QPOCPROJECT IS AN ORGANISATION FOR QUEER PEOPLE OF COLOUR. 

EVERY MONTH WE HOST SOCIAL AND PROFESSIONAL EVENTS SUCH AS; BOOK CLUBS, COFFEE MORNINGS, NIGHTS OUT, DISCUSSION GROUPS, QUIZ NIGHTS, ICEBREAKERS, WORKSHOPS, PEER SUPPORT GROUPS AND MORE. 

WITHIN OUR COMMITTEE WE HAVE AN ACTIVITIES TEAM, WELFARE TEAM, SOCIAL MEDIA TEAM AND JOURNALISM TEAM AND WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR NEW PEOPLE TO JOIN US.

OUR AIM IS TO CREATE AN INCLUSIVE SPACE FOR QPOC IN THE UK AND ABROAD WHERE WE DISCUSS HOW WE NAVIGATE THE CULTURAL, POLITICAL AND SOCIAL JOURNEY WE GO THROUGH  AS QUEER PEOPLE OF COLOUR. ADDITIONALLY, THIS SPACE IS HIGHLY IMPORTANT DUE TO A LACK OF QPOC SPACES IN LGBTQ+ ORGANISATIONS IN THE UK.

 THERE IS NO UNIVERSAL QUEER EXPERIENCE, OUR CULTURE AND OUR QUEERNESS SHAPE OUR IDENTITY AND HOW WE CHOOSE TO LOVE OURSELVES AND OTHERS. THIS IS SOMETHING THE QPOCPROJECT CAN OFFER, THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET THOSE WHO HAVE WALKED A SIMILAR PATH, THOSE WHO PROVE TO US THAT WE ARE IN FACT NOT ALONE, AND THOSE WHO INSPIRE US TO BE MOST AUTHENTICALLY OURSELVES.

 THE QPOCPROJECT IS A COMMUNITY
