In partnership with Brighton & Hove Healthwatch, this service will work with LGBTQ people who are in economic hardship, work to prevent hardship crisis and help people recover from crisis. Together, Allsorts and MindOut can offer a service across age ranges, responding to the differing, and similar, needs of young people and older adults.
