Sappho Events produces social events for LGBTQIA+ women, trans and non-binary people. These included pottery workshops, book clubs, board game nights, queer tarot reading workshops and speed dating. The events give queer women and non-binary people an opportunity to make queer friends and socialise in a non-alcohol fuelled setting. This is important in the community when many social LGBTQIA+ spaces are alcohol-fuelled bars and heavily populated by LGBTQIA+ men. Our activities build community, and create safe spaces for queer people to share their common interests.
We have regular surveys after our events to get feedback from customers to monitor the quality of events and people’s demand for other events. The two directors then review these and adjust as needed. We also have monthly checkins with our venue and facilitators to ensure the venue staff are happy with events and any feedback they have received has been passed onto us. The overall feedback is that there is increasing demand for these activities now that the pandemic has ended, and if we could increase our capacity and frequency of events, that would be welcomed by the community. It was decided that sustainability and quality control is essential, and we will attempt to expand slowly.
No remuneration was received
