Somewhere: For Us in the Cairngorms

Episode 5,   Mar 31, 2023, 12:00 PM

In this episode, Jules teams up with 15 year olds Alice and Eoin to explore growing up as two young LGBTQ+ people living rurally in the Cairngorms, and the flourishing queer community that lies within their reach.

Meet Alice and Eoin!  They are two young Queer people living in the rural town of Grantown-on-Spey, in the Cairngorms National Park.  Their candid conversation with Jules, highlights themes around support, bullying, inclusive education, finding your community and LGBTQ+ visibility.

Along with their revealing conversation,  you'll be transported to the heart of Grantown-on-Spey and the town's very first LGBTQ+ event, hosted by Somewhere: For Us!

How far do they have to go to find LGBTQ+ role models?

Somewhere: For Us in the Cairngorms is proudly supported by the Community-Led Vision Fund, through the Scottish Government and the Cairngorms National Park Authority.

Jules wishes to extend special thanks to Alice Patton and Eoin Jones for their time and honesty and the supporting staff at Grantown Grammar School.
