To create monthly events a meetups in lgbtq I save spaces but with a particular interest in areas that fall out of the mainstream sceen venues such as smaller towns and cities that often get overlooked by bigger neighboring cities for example the Sheffield the largest city to look at a small town they bring like Barnsley or leads being the biggest city look at Ponefact or Wakefield to promote fair inclusion it is evident that socializing amongst the LGBT community like general population has decreased and although dating apps such as grinder and essential tool modern life and dating i feel it fair to say that it may have had a negative impact on how we as a community now socialize resulting in Greater isolation loneliness and depression, under specially after the covid pandemic the need to socialize and then interact with others with greater boat still locks and I feel that the need for plan events something where people can actually look forward to plan and budget for is great this helps with building routines back up and should help pull Communities back together as I mentioned dating apps provide a massive platform however often are used as a quick fix dating tool and often ends up just being one of meats as and when me going back to 20 years where we had LGBT venues touch the travel to such as bars this gave you a sense of something to look forward to something to speak to friends and family about and invite others to if something like grinder could back something up and work with new and existing venues or service providers this may put back the backbone of which our community excel in which was being there for each other and supporting each of the community when faced with massive challenges our community excels in being able to challenge really topical and often stigmatized issues and sudden me to think that those that have paved the way for our community to get the acceptance there as now growing older and subtly faced with almost going back into the closet due to the bean a lack of social interactive nonsexual places for them to meet up our venues used to put colorful another underlive and was so important for us to identify as a place of safety where we can always find a friend
