The Rainbow Project Rotherham

The Rainbow Project Rotherham plays a vital role in creating safe, inclusive, and uplifting spaces for LGBTQ+ people across our community and this report shines a light on the real impact it has on local lives. Throughout October 2025, Healthwatch Rotherham spent time within 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 provides not just services, but a sense of belonging, connection, and confidence for those who need it most. This report shares the voices of attendees, highlights the strengths of the project, and explores where greater understanding and support are still needed.
