The Rainbow Project Rotherham creates safe, inclusive spaces for LGBTQ+ people across our borough. Between October 2025, Healthwatch Rotherham spent time with the project’s groups and activities, listening to people’s experiences of support, wellbeing, identity, and access to health and care.
What we heard was clear: the Rainbow Project does more than deliver services. It gives people a sense of belonging, connection and confidence. This report shares attendees’ voices, highlights what the project does well, and identifies where more understanding and support are needed.
Our 'You said, we did' report for October 2025 is now available.
This month we were heard from 78 people who either shared their experiences of health and social care services, or asked for information and signposting help. Our report highlights some of the things we heard and some of the actions we have taken, as well as some of the feedback given to us. We had a massive response at our outreach engagements totaling 275 people seen!
