Listen to episode three of Flagship’s podcast Open House, now available on Spotify!

On this episode, host Liv Castle is joined by Flagship's Inclusion & Wellbeing Manager Kieran, and Hopestead Programme & Policy Manager Bee. To mark the end of Pride (which, although worldwide in June, often runs well into July with events like our local Norwich Pride not taking place until late July), they talk about how housing is an LGBTQIA+ issue, and all the ways housing providers can recognise issues and improve their services.

Connecting back to things like the aftermath of the AIDS crisis and how that affected housing provision and availability, to how queer youth may face housing instability and homelessness due to familial rejection for their identity, this episode touches on some difficult topics that prove how housing is very much an LGBT issue.

If you have something you’d like to learn more about that we can include in future episodes, have something you’d like featured on a future episode, or would like to share any feedback, email us at commsteam@flagship-group.co.uk.
