Who We Are & What We Do
Liverpool has an incredibly vibrant community of queer artists, activists and organisations working constantly to improve life for LGBTQ+ folk across the UK - but if you’re new to the city, it’s still incredibly hard to find queer friendly spaces and events.
And that’s where we come in. The Queer Agenda is Merseyside’s collective rainbow diary. Every week, we update this site and our instagram with all the queer events we can find in the Merseyside area - from markets and book clubs to club nights and protest marches.
Our Mission
We’re here for the girls, gays and theys - and everyone else under the LGBTQ+ umbrella. The Queer Agenda is here for four reasons:
-
To spread news about queer and trans events run in Liverpool and the surrounding area - everything from board games nights to trans dance parties!
-
To keep and maintain a list of trans-friendly spaces and organisations, easily accessible to queer visitors and locals alike.
-
To help promote community and cohesion between activists and groups across Merseyside - we’re most powerful when fighting together.
-
To chase up accurate information about accessibility of events, and promote inclusion of disabled people within queer spaces.
How can I support this?
The Queer Agenda is an entirely volunteer run operation, so support of any way is vital to keep us going! You can do this in a few ways:
Spread the word
Share this website and our social media with your queer friends!
Show up
Turn up to local queer events and support the organisers - and tell them we sent you!
Donate
This will always be a free service, but we also accept donations to keep things running smoothly.
Who's in charge?
The Queer Agenda is run and continually updated by Ripley, co-founder of Board Gaymes Liverpool. They are a 26 year old disabled nonbinary person, currently located in Liverpool, and have been running accessible queer events for almost two years. Outside of their full time job as a graphic designer, they like games of all kinds (video, board and TTRPG), obsessing over queer sci fi, and thoroughly spoiling their flatmate’s cats.
