Better Out Than In

Better Out Than In strives to promote a healthier relationship with mental health and wellbeing amongst 14-23 year olds in Ireland who are LGBTQ+.

Growing up can be tough, and being LGBTQ+ can bring more challenges. Taking the brave step of opening up to someone about your worries and fears, no matter how big or small, is worth it.

This Better Out Than In hub allows you to check out face-to-face, online, phone, and text supports so you can share whatever’s going on for you.
